10,000 mile oil changes till it hits 200k miles, then 7,500 intervals. Always using
Royal Purple and Toyota filters. Zero oil consumption between changes
Try it and if it works, stick with it. The engine seems to be doing well with that and Fram filters at 8000km changes over 150000km.
Been using 0W20 on my 2010 Corolla for 100,000km now with no issues. As others said, use a quality filter. I use the genuine filter from Toyota for around $12.
You can just get the fram ones thou. I have been using them for 4 years no issues.
Fwiw, a lot of bmw guys have problems with certain filters that are slightly too long for the housing and compress/bow out. I think fram was the culprit on the n54.
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.
They didn't change out my oil filter. Since it was a cartidge I put a piece of tape over that it would separate if removed. It wasn't broken.
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.
