Oil filter Fram or Castrol

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

Fram filters have a lower micron count than other brands, thus why people say they are bad. I would not use them on high performance stuff, but on econoboxes i would. been using exclusively fram on my 2006 corolla since it was brand new and it has 250k miles and still going strong, however on my mustang i only use motorcraft.

Pros: 250k miles, still strong
Cons: lower micron count
Mileage: 250000 km

I have used Fram, AC Delco, K&N, and Napa Gold. I had issue with the body breaking down on Fram and K&N. I stick to AC Delco so it keeps as close to OEM as possible.

Pros: keeps close to OEM
Cons: body breaking down

Stay away from fram as the name is just ruined in many peoples eyes. I wouldn't buy something for good money with fram on it.

Cons: ruined name, cheap quality

Fram Air filters: Their OEM filters are the absolutely best while the exact same filters with a "Fram" label are manufacturing rejects. Kinked pleats, misaligned bracing screen, holes in the gasket, missing glue, etc.

Fram Oil filters: Nope. Few pleats and not very strong. You can find lots of test and teardown videos. I've had past problems with the gasket swelling so badly that the filter has to be torched off.

Cons: few pleats, weak, gasket swelling

FRAM filters are pretty dookie. They are known for coming apart and clogging oil systems. My RAM had FRAM filters for its 180k miles and its got little pieces of shit in the oil every time i check or change it.

I wouldnt bother with them.

Cons: coming apart, clogging
Mileage: 180000 km
