I dont dont get all the hate for fram. We use them at work on the fleet trucks, ive always used them on my own oil changes and air filters. Like 10ish years of using them and seeing them be used and ive never seen one fail. And same with castrol oil, i use it and we use it at work and have never had any motor issues.
The only time we dont use frams is when we are out of stock and dont have time to order or fram doesnt make it.
The high end Fram Ultra is probably the best filter you can get. It filters very fine particles that other brands simply don't. While not a fan of Fram filters, the high end ultra filter has nothing to do with the cheaper ones and is a very good filter. It does reduce oil pressure a bit, but that won't matter unless your engine is about to die. But as far as actual filtration, you will have a hard time finding another filter that will filter as well as that one.
I used to go for the Fram Ultra Synthetic (not at all the same as the cheap Frams), but lately I've been getting Bosch or AC Delco filters from the internet, as they're decent quality and very inexpensive (1/3 the price of a Fram Ultra).
Pennzoil Platinum Synthetic 0W20 with a Fram Ultra Synthetic oil filter. Every car I've owned gets this (weight varies by engine requirements). Runs better and longer than M1EP, Castrol GTX, Valvoline MaxLife, and it's cheaper than Royal Purple and still can be bought at Walmart.
Fram ultra's are fine, but their cheap filters are just that, cheap.
The original company that made them was bought out by fram and now they are all junk.
Dont use a fram filter.... That will help a TON. There is a reason almost nobody uses Fram except walmart. I wouldnt trust the base fram past 3k period
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
