Oil filter Fram or AMSOIL

Fram Oil filter

I’ve been using Fram oil filters since the 90’s. I Used Fram filters on my original owner 2004 Honda Odyssey after warranty period was up for 20 years! That engine had 307,000 miles on it with zero issues when I got rid of it. Trans failed twice before engine did. My 2001 Maxima got 238,000 using Fram filters. That car got sold because of a rear main seal leak and other issues not engine related.  I used them in my 71’ Challenger and 87’ turbo T Buick WE4 (granted they never saw more than 300 miles during an oil change). I’ve never had a problem with them.

Pros: zero issues, 307,000 miles
Mileage: 307000 km

If budget, buy the Fram with the dark end cap. Or one of these Mobil 1 filter Bosch Wix Gold All of these are efficency rated to a good level and will filter particulate to a better level, thus, less wear.

Pros: good efficiency, less wear

Fram Oil filter

Fram is actually pretty underrated. People see the price and think it's cheap junk, but fram actually has a good filter with low micron rating. Fram actually invented the oil filter. Look it up. I have noticed a couple quality control problems but that's why I look at the filter before I buy it. Never had a problem

Pros: good filter, low micron rating
Cons: quality control problems

I had weird oil pressure issues with them, the chevy LT engines have a weird oil system so you have to use the GM filters. customer lost a engine to the mis match filters.

Cons: oil pressure issues
Vehicle: Chevrolet

I just want a metal body for the spin-on filters in case they’re put on too tight. I’m not a mechanic, but have tore the shit out of a Fram oil filter trying to remove it. The Mobile 1 filters work well on my Camry.

Cons: hard to remove

If you have a vw definitely do not use Fram. That shit shrivels up and disintegrates restricting oil flow and given most vw engines use oil pressure to tension the timing belt or chains I've replaced a lot of enigines because of them

Cons: shrivels, disintegrates, restricts flow
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I once got a filter without the threads tapped in it. Just a smooth center hole. They swapped it for another Fram but I didn’t love putting on a customer’s car

Cons: no threads
