Fram filters are awful.
I use fram filters, full synthetic 5w-20, for the last 150k miles. Total cost is like $25 at walmart. I am right at 210k miles now with oil changes EVERY 5k miles.
Runs good, but burns a quart by 5k miles.
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.
I personally would spend a bit more money on a decent quality oil filter, stay away from Fram.
P.S. Use OEM filters. FRAM is garbage.
I don’t use FRAM filters; they don’t stand up to my pipe wrench tightening technique.
I still prefer to use the Fram Tough Guard TH3614 bc the grip tip. Makes it easier to remove.
I don't get the enthusiasm as they also sell the Fram endurance filter which is much better than OEM in terms of filtration.
Probably still better than a fram
