Oil filter Fram or Bosch

Fram Oil filter

Ran whatever fram filter they had. Regular, tough guard and the synthetic. Over 500,000 km doing synthetic oil and a fram filter every 15,000km. It’s still going. That’s over 40 fram filters, never had a problem

Pros: still going, never a problem
Mileage: 500000 km

Fram Oil filter

I use Fram 9/10 times I do an oil change, never had an issue. I have heard more than once that some Fram filters have internal rust from the factory, but I’ve never cut one open to verify this

Pros: never had an issue
Cons: internal rust

Fram Oil filter

Decades ago some of em would collapse and send crap into your oil pan and worse. So I was told anyway; left a bad taste in a lot of older mechanics mouths.

These days they are fine.

Pros: fine these days
Cons: collapse, send crap

Fram Oil filter

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.

Cons: doesn't fit snug, loose in housing
Part number: FS11784

Fram Oil filter

I do not know very many mechanics or race people who swear by wix or fram on cars that are mechanically more complex. i.e. high compression motors, vvt, etc.

Cons: not recommended for complex cars
