Fram Titanium gets good reviews.
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 assume that if I get the el cheapo Fram with the paper media, pretty soon all the paper inside will be shredded?
Avoid Fram oil filters, they fit the housing but are very loose
Did an oil change on my dad's Yaris last year on the 1NZ-FE motor. Everything went well until I got to the oil filter. My dumbass confused clockwise and counterclockwise. So instead of losing it I was basically over tightening it to the point it got stuck.
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.
Ewww Fram filter…
The oil filter *would not* come off and just got crushed when I put a wrench on it. I ended up cutting it apart to use the oil passages to turn it, and when I cut it up I discovered that the oil filter was completely empty besides a small cardboard tube.\n\nThat filter looked like a FRAM, but instead of a filter had been filled with a roll of toilet paper.
