Reviews of Fram parts For Business

Had an 05 Civic and put 100k miles on it. Used full synthetic + Fram filters every 10k miles. Opened the engine for a timing belt and it was squeaky clean, not even varnished.

I also recently saw one YT channel test Fram and it did really well. It was somewhat restrictive, but it held a lot of dust and did a good job at filtering.

I use the cheapest brand on my daily and no issues after 160k miles ????????

I've used them for 30 years and have nothing to complain about.

The rokis are a great value and fine filter. If you want better flow/filtration look for something with synthetic media and a silicone adbv FE9688, EA15K20-EA, M1-104A, PL14460, royal purple also offers a premium one. I run the FE9688 now, was using XG9688 till they removed mesh. 12$ at Walmart best filter I’ve found so far atleast in theory haha. Wish we had more test data on filters and manufacturers gave out more specs.

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

You don't need to buy OEM - *especially* for a cabin air filter - but you could save some money by finding a good source of Bosch or Wix filters. Never Fram, ever.

Fram filters are trash. I bought a fram for a new engine and upon fire up the lifters would clatter while it refilled the filter.

Fram made my oil light indicator flicker every time I turned from a stop.

Fram are by far the worst brand I've seen. Fram filters have cardboard caps on the element that can come apart. Some of them don't even crimp the ends of the element to prevent unfiltered oil from going through the gap.

when I took off the FRAM filter there was no oil that came out. After inspecting the filter it seems like it was not filtering out the oil at all. There seemed to be cleaner oil in it instead.
