Owner reviews for oil filter

Pennzoil and a wix filter, 30 bucks total and 10 minutes of my time.

You want to stick to a reasonable quality of part. OE spec would be ideal. I won't use Crossland, Mann is the lowest I'll go.

Dealerships will use their branded parts, which is the OEM (manufacturer) provided part. For example during a oil service, Toyota will use their Toyota/Lexus branded oil filters that come in the little red/white box with brand stamping all over it.

I've also used mann filters for oil before, no issues

OEM oil filter is required in Hyundai or they will shut down and leave no codes in OBD2

Then go buy a Wix. Or go to the dealer. Leave the cheap stuff (and Fram) on the shelf.

The motorcraft filters I've seen for fords have the pressure relief at the end that screws on, top in most cases. Most others have it at the bottom. Since crud settles to the bottom if that relief opens with the relief at the bottom its gonna send that crud into the engine.

I pulled off the suspect filter and put a new one on. Unfortunately, I had several variables at play, and could not isolate root cause. Initially, the new filter didn't seem to make much of a difference. It quieted down a little.

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.
