Oil filter Fram or OEM Hyundai

Fram Oil filter

I use Fram 9/10 times I do an oil change, never had an issue. I have heard more than once that some Fram filters have internal rust from the factory, but I’ve never cut one open to verify this

Pros: never had an issue
Cons: internal rust

Fram Oil filter

Fram filters have a lower micron count than other brands, thus why people say they are bad. I would not use them on high performance stuff, but on econoboxes i would. been using exclusively fram on my 2006 corolla since it was brand new and it has 250k miles and still going strong, however on my mustang i only use motorcraft.

Pros: 250k miles, still strong
Cons: lower micron count
Mileage: 250000 km

I used a Fram filter on my VW and it developed a knocking ticking sound lol. Switched it out for a Mann and it was fine.

Pros: Mann filter was fine
Cons: knocking ticking sound
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Using a cheap (fram) oil filter is a recipe for disaster, because those filters fail internally, and either go into bypass mode, or the internals of the filter grenade, and go directly into the crankshaft bearings.

Cons: filters fail internally

Stay away from fram as the name is just ruined in many peoples eyes. I wouldn't buy something for good money with fram on it.

Cons: ruined name, cheap quality

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
