Oil filter Fram or Mann

Fram Oil filter

The OEM filter is not the best in any metric, whether filtration %, efficiency, or longevity. I'd say the OEM A01 filter is regarded as better built too but can be pricier and harder to obtain.

My recommendation would be Fram Ultra XG7317 which is a heavy duty built filter with synthetic media - I happily run this one for two oil changes at 6000 miles before changing.

Pros: heavy duty, long lasting
Cons: OEM filter poor
Mileage: 6000 km
Part number: XG7317

Fram Oil filter

Fram is a good filter, just make sure you get the upgraded one for the car. Use good oil change when scheduled and the filter will do it's job nicely.

Pros: good filter, does its job

Mann Oil filter

I always thought the filter caught all of that stuff, I mean yea it got the bigger pieces but I wasn't expecting it to let all of that fine stuff through. Honestly makes me question how good the OEM Mann filters really are?

Cons: let fine stuff through, questions quality
Mileage: 2004 km

I think I tried using a Fram filter on my '99 truck once, and the filter was designed ever so slightly differently and as a result I lost all my oil in a week.

Cons: lost all oil, poor design
Vehicle: Ford Ranger
