Fram TG 7317 as it has all of the qualities that I need and none of the extra hype or price. I use it in my Honda instead of the 6607 because it has a centimeter more of material on it and fits just as well. I change it every other oil change so it goes maybe 12,000 mi and my car has nearly 150k without consuming any significant oil. So I think I'm good.
I use the Fram synthetic XG7317 filters on my summer car, and I only change the oil once a year given how little I drive it (3-4K kms at most annually). The mesh reinforced filter medium gives me peace of mind, and the silicone anti-drainback likely won’t see deterioration if it stays on a bit longer if I decide not to take it out one summer.
Motorcraft oil filters are crap. Buy the fram Ultra equivalent, they are THE BEST oil filters on the market, not Wix, not K&N, it is the fram ULTRA. It has been researched and tested time and time again by independent studies to filter the most particulates of any oil filter on the market.
Get MANN ????oil filter
Id also pick up the Fram ultra filter
-Full synth Pennzoil oil and any of the Fram synthetic-friendly filters plus the BG EPR and MOA treatment before and after every change.
I assume that if I get the el cheapo Fram with the paper media, pretty soon all the paper inside will be shredded?
Last time I tried fram the filter collapsed and blew my oil cooler seals in under 1500mi
Avoid Fram oil filters, they fit the housing but are very loose
IMO. There are no "good" Fram filters. I grant you Fram is better than a screen door for filtering oil but I'd only put on in the car of someone I hated. Look around YouTube for Fram vs Mann filters. The construction and quality of Fram is a joke in comparison to real filters.
