I use cheap Fram filters ($4 each!) Oil always clean and fresh.
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 assume that if I get the el cheapo Fram with the paper media, pretty soon all the paper inside will be shredded?
All that and he put in a cheap Fram filter?
The shop I bought it from refunded me for the fram oil filter and my engine is fine but I’m pretty disappointed in myself for not doing anything when I noticed the gasket on the filter was a little big, I thought fram was just improving their seal bc I’ve had a few filters develop small drips. But just thought I would share my experience I think I’ll also spend a little more and get wix if their performance isn’t better Ik their quality control is bc every filter is sealed.
Fram is junk. Stick with OE/OEM.
No, fram is the worst possible oil filter brand. They are restrictive, cheap, Chinese crap. I've seen them come fresh out the box with gaps in the metal. I've seen videos of people cutting open un used filters and finding surface rust.
