I’m almost 60. I have exclusively used Fram on every car I’ve owned and I have never had an oil related issue. If you’re planning on not changing your oil for 10k or more then it may be an issue.
I've used fram oil filters since 2009, never once had a problem. Vehicles ive used them on: chevy impala, honda crv, mitsubishi eclipse cross, volkswagen jetta, vilkswagen tiguan, nissan frontier. Each of which has surpassed 100k miles with 0 issues. I never understood the hate.
I've been using Fram oil/air/cabin filters for 53 years. Never a problem.
I used Fram filters in my Nissan for 20 years. It's still going strong. I did oil changes religiously though.
I have no issue with their higher end filters, I'm actually running one on my wrangler currently but their budget filters are atrociously bad
My brother had a car with an oil pressure gauge. Put a Fram in and he had zero pressure! Put in a different brand and it was fine. If he didn’t have a gauge he would have blown the engine.
I found one with tons of metal shavings from fabrication. I wrote to FRAM and never got a reply. This is for a Extra Guard filter, my go to back in the days... no more.
Friends don’t let friends buy fram
Fram filters are awful.
I was getting low oil pressure readings, not level, but it was caused by a cold snap and a cheap Fram filter collapsing under my frozen, sludgy 10w40.
