Oil filter Fram or Mann

I also use MANN W719/30. That filter is designed to go a longer interval and for synthetic oils.

New Mann oil filter

Mine was from May 2001, changed it out last year and it for sure made a difference.

Ran whatever fram filter they had. Regular, tough guard and the synthetic. Over 500,000 km doing synthetic oil and a fram filter every 15,000km. It’s still going. That’s over 40 fram filters, never had a problem

wenn möglich Ölwechsel bei Mac Oil durchführen lassen, kostet je nach benötigtem Shell MotorÖl zwischen 50 und 80€ inkl. mann Ölfilter und zurücksetzen des Service, plus eintrag ins Scheckheft. dauert ca. 15 min reine Arbeitszeit und kann im Auto sitzen bleiben. unschlagbares Konzept.

Decades ago some of em would collapse and send crap into your oil pan and worse. So I was told anyway; left a bad taste in a lot of older mechanics mouths.

These days they are fine.

I just want a metal body for the spin-on filters in case they’re put on too tight. I’m not a mechanic, but have tore the shit out of a Fram oil filter trying to remove it. The Mobile 1 filters work well on my Camry.

If you have a vw definitely do not use Fram. That shit shrivels up and disintegrates restricting oil flow and given most vw engines use oil pressure to tension the timing belt or chains I've replaced a lot of enigines because of them

I once got a filter without the threads tapped in it. Just a smooth center hole. They swapped it for another Fram but I didn’t love putting on a customer’s car
