Yes, the Bosch 3300 is correct for your car. I just used exactly that one for my oil change a few weeks ago.
I'll probably get downvoted for this, but Fram is perfectly fine and the higher line (Ultra / XG) gets excellent reviews. I've been using Fram on everything for years, including a boosted Mazdaspeed Protegé, my Miata, a Lexus, etc. Never an issue. I use the XG line for both my Miata and my daily driver 3, as it has excellent construction and fantastic filtration ratings. As an added bonus, the textured section of the filter means that I never have to use tools and I've never had a Fram seize or be a pain to remove (unlike other brands I've used in the past).
The Ultras are actually good. The grippy rubberized bottom is a nice convenience too.
I use either Mobil 1 0w20, or Royal Purple 0w20. For the filter, I use Fram Titanium. I do all routine maintenance myself. I've got a 2015 SR DC with 388k miles, and have never had any issues. It still runs perfectly.
Quality air filter changed regularly. Quality oil filter Frams higher end stuff are surprisingly well made for the $.
Fram… even used the orange can of death on my old Toyotas without issues.
Happened to me last winter with a Bosch oil filter -- not even an el cheapo aftermarket filter, either. It looked someone had wrung it out like a dishrag.
last time I did my oil, i made the mistake of using a fram filter. When I went to take it off this week, it wouldn't budge. Only hand tightened when i put it on, wet the seal with oil, and I had no reason to believe there was anything wrong. It took me being at the most awkward angle possible under the car and using every bit of strenght I have for it to finally come off. To this point i have never had to use more than halfish strength to remove one.
dont use fram filters, do some research online and you'll see tons of people that have had issues with them.
I have had a Fram orange can of death implode on a car I owned. Dunno how long it was running with Un-filtered oil but the motor never died. I quit using the El cheapo ones.
