do not buy fram...wix is all right...mobile 1 filters are overpriced...pretty much almost anything BUT fram

Why don't you want to buy Fram? Are the filters from Napa ok?

Castrol SYNTEC Full Synthetic. Made in Germany only.

thats good, from what ive heard Royal Purple is good. but my buddies dad ran John Deere Diesel Oil in his Plymouth Cirrus and cleared the odometer(1,000,000 miles). I dont know how it performed but it ran for ever.

jesus.


he could sell it as a 0 mile Cirrus!

fram is made of cardboard...the filter is weak as well.

true many use it with no issues...but there are others who have issues...and the occurrence of problems is much more than acceptable IMO

I used them as well with no issues...but I saw another filter review (not that one above)....I will never buy fram oil filter again. VERY low quality, even their "higher" quality ones aren't any better.

I'm not an expert on oil filters, so I don't really have an opinion on whether or not Fram is as bad as people say. I read through the linked thread out of curiosity and I've got to say, it really isn't much of a source...if you read through all the replies in the thread, the reviewer pretty much is left with no credibility whatsoever.

there are other such links with better data...have to look for them...trust me...fram isn't good...

it won't kill your engine of course, like I said, i ran with them for a long time...but for your money you can get a MUCH better quality filter than cardboard fram. Do you really think cardboard + hot oil mix too well?

WOW never knew Fram used cardboard. That's what I've always used with no problems.

well that's not surprising, hell even bisi used them to break engine's in...but he didn't know about their construction either...so you can't just go off stuff like that.

honestly you could run them with no issues...but I just refuse to push my synthetic oil that lasts 15,000 miles through a cardboard constructed coffee paper filter...exaggeration...but still....they are shittly made and you can get better filter for similar price. I don't think fram has the anti-drain valve either.
