Oil filter Fram or Bosch

oil 0W16 filter I use Fram XG4967

I tried to buy a filter, a bosch is a decent choice, but I wasn't able to find it, or I should import it for 100 sar ( which is expensive, most filter sold for 20 to 50 sar where I live - saudi arabia -)

Fram Titanium gets good reviews.

Make sure to change the drain plug crush washer if you don't do at the dealer and get good quality filters (Bosch, Mann)

Subaru filters are made by Fram/Honeywell, Supertech filters are made by Champion.

I did that with a 300 CID 6 in an 80 F150.

Fram filter, nuf said.

All that and he put in a cheap Fram filter?

The shop I bought it from refunded me for the fram oil filter and my engine is fine but I’m pretty disappointed in myself for not doing anything when I noticed the gasket on the filter was a little big, I thought fram was just improving their seal bc I’ve had a few filters develop small drips. But just thought I would share my experience I think I’ll also spend a little more and get wix if their performance isn’t better Ik their quality control is bc every filter is sealed.

Fram is junk. Stick with OE/OEM.

No, fram is the worst possible oil filter brand. They are restrictive, cheap, Chinese crap. I've seen them come fresh out the box with gaps in the metal. I've seen videos of people cutting open un used filters and finding surface rust.
