Oil filter Fram or Mobil
fresh clean fill of Ravenol 10W-40 TSI (semi synthetic) with a Fram oil filter
I always use mobil 1 and a mobil 1 filter. The owners manual only recommends it.
Mobil1 0w20 and a Mobil1 Filter every 5k
Ran whatever fram filter they had. Regular, tough guard and the synthetic. Over 500,000 km doing synthetic oil and a fram filter every 15,000km. It’s still going. That’s over 40 fram filters, never had a problem
I use a FRAM filter for my civic.
I've seen Fram oil filters cause this, but in your photo, it appears you have a black Mann/Mahle/Bosch/VW filter on it
When I seat this fram titanium filter in the oil filter housing it doesn’t make that audible click when you push it down and fit snug. It is loose in the oil filter housing and moves around.
Almost any filter is better than a fram.
Don’t use Fram filters they are trash
I do not know very many mechanics or race people who swear by wix or fram on cars that are mechanically more complex. i.e. high compression motors, vvt, etc.
