Oil filter Fram or Bosch

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.

The orange can of death is only for 3,000 miles!!! Do the ultra synthetic, 20k mile filter. Haven't had a problem with them. I but in bulk as much as possible.

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Fram Ultra Synthetic (XG10060). OEM Mopar air filters for cabin and engine. I also add 15oz bottle BioTech Lubegard in oil. Just did mine, love the results. 2021 Rebel, 60k miles, 5.7L non-e torque if it matters.

Whatever is available. Preferably penzoil or Mobil 1. I’ve used castrol, no issues. But all oil is the same ????????‍♂️ I also use the fram filter (the synthetic one that has the steel mesh wrapped around the filter paper)

Castrol 5w-30-M with Bosch filter.

I typically go with Mobil 1. Fram has been manufacturing filters that use a little flap of tin for the bypass spring which comes on during high oil pressure situations, and at least in Canada i have seen these fail quite early. And not one or two, but closer to 3/10 i have cut open. I should cut more open as my observations are now a bit dated but in my opinion if it has a actual bypass spring inside of it, they will be more effective in the long run since the ones with a actual bypass spring inside of the filter i have personally never seen one fail yet.

And with filter media, you want it to be the vacuum bag. The canister that simply catches the most crap is not exactly the smallest micron rating, but the filter that returns to normal operation reliably when the vehicle hits operating temperature. And if that filter seems too expensive to run, then you really cannot afford to replace the engine.

Edit: Also it is worth checking out your factory supplied oil filter as they usually spring the bypass correctly for the designed engine oil pressure.

Never buy fram oil filters they’re all shit.

I have seen Fram metal filters expand due to factory oil pressures.

Fram is absolutely the worst filters ever. Years ago a motorcycle forum I belonged to cut open a bunch of major brand filters, K&N, WIX, FilterPro (store brand style) Fram and NAPA. NAPA and WIX were the best bang for the buck, K&N obviously the best but also much more expensive. Fram was shocking, all the internals were cardboard, no metal reinforcement etc. Absolute garbage.

I had a FRAM oil filter on my 05 Impreza, I think the part number was #PH6607, I noticed i i was “burning” a ton of oil! I went to do my usual 3K Mile oil change. I noticed the oil levels were alot lower than the time i check a few days prior! I looked under the car and there was oil EVERYWHERE! Mainly built up around the filter!
