Vehicle: Toyota

I don't get the enthusiasm as they also sell the Fram endurance filter which is much better than OEM in terms of filtration.

Pros: better filtration

My father changed a Fram filter years ago and noticed the filtration media became dislodged and looked like if you crushed a piece of paper in your hand. So the filter wasn't doing anything and luckily it didn't get sucked up in the engine and cause catastrophic damage. I highly advise against buying Fram.

Cons: media dislodged, poor filtration
