I don't understand why people are giving you a hard time for using FRAM, these filters in specific are actually pretty good and I've been running them myself for the past 40k miles (I only use them for 5k miles, though) without any issues.
It's fine. I just grab Fram TGs for ours as they're common and good for two OCIs and I never need a wrench. Rated at 15k minimum and I put 13k on them and Blackstone says I'm good.
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.
I assume that if I get the el cheapo Fram with the paper media, pretty soon all the paper inside will be shredded?
Never ever use Fram….use WIX or Purolator Pure ONE
Fram sucks. Wix is the gold standard, and Purolator isn't bad either. You can do your own research, but what ultimately makes the difference is the total surface area of the filter medium and the size of particulate it's rated to filter (the smaller the better). Fram filters might as well be a pasta strainer for all that they catch.
Yes and don't buy a orange fram there junk as hell. Filter is held together with glue.
Regardless, I'd advise staying away from Fram. They're notoriously bad.
