Oil filter Fram or K&N

Also, I would just use Fram ultra synthetic for 5k mile oil changes. It has 99% efficiency at 20 micron, so it’s fine, and its 20k mile rating is obviously more than enough for 5k mile oil changes.

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.

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.

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

I’ve always used fram. They get the job done, and never had issues.

Probably still better than a fram

Using a cheap (fram) oil filter is a recipe for disaster, because those filters fail internally, and either go into bypass mode, or the internals of the filter grenade, and go directly into the crankshaft bearings.

I run the mobil 1 filter but oem is a good option. I used to use K&N but had the issue of not one but two of them leaking around the gasket.

Oil is oil, however those K&N filters are trash, definitely wouldn’t put that in my car.

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.
