Oil filter Fram or Mobil

Fram Oil filter

Use some seafoam in the oil before the oil change to clean deposits up. I use Rotella T6 5w40 with a high quality fram filter, XG16 if I remember correctly (avoid the orange). High zinc content in the oil is good for the lifters in these engines and the 40 is good for a high mileage engine with a wearing oil pump.

Pros: high zinc content
Part number: XG16

Fram Oil filter

Fram actually makes the OEM Honda filters. The OEM filter is exactly the same as the Fram Tough Guard, just painted differently. The Fram Ultra is genuinely an awesome filter.

Pros: awesome filter, same as OEM

I've used various Mobil1 oil, but usually use the kind in OPs pic. Every other oil change I change my oil filter. I use a Mobil1 110A (I think) which is a larger filter than OEM. I've done this for about 30k miles, and have not noticed any ill effects.

Pros: no ill effects
Mileage: 48280 km
Part number: 110A

Fram Oil filter

I have used Fram, AC Delco, K&N, and Napa Gold. I had issue with the body breaking down on Fram and K&N. I stick to AC Delco so it keeps as close to OEM as possible.

Pros: keeps close to OEM
Cons: body breaking down

Fram Air filters: Their OEM filters are the absolutely best while the exact same filters with a "Fram" label are manufacturing rejects. Kinked pleats, misaligned bracing screen, holes in the gasket, missing glue, etc.

Fram Oil filters: Nope. Few pleats and not very strong. You can find lots of test and teardown videos. I've had past problems with the gasket swelling so badly that the filter has to be torched off.

Cons: few pleats, weak, gasket swelling

FRAM filters are pretty dookie. They are known for coming apart and clogging oil systems. My RAM had FRAM filters for its 180k miles and its got little pieces of shit in the oil every time i check or change it.

I wouldnt bother with them.

Cons: coming apart, clogging
Mileage: 180000 km
