I always change my own engine air filter, cabin filter, and until recently the oil and filter (I'm also partial to Fram). The cabin filter is sooooo much easier to change that on my first Honda - 1989 Accord.
We ran only Fram (PH-8A) on our 1971 Ford LTD until the 1990s when we sold the car with 230K miles on it, and it had just started a light main crank bearing knock.
I use the Fram Synthetic Endurance. It’s a super high quality filter blessed by all the cognescenti at bobistheoilguy.com.???? Definitely not the Fram orange cans from years ago.
I use Pennzoil Platinum and Fram Ultra filters.
Probably still better than a fram
Same on my 1.8l Cruze using a FRAM filter. no light but it built up enough pressure it blew the oil cooler seal. Milage went from 6.5l per 100 to 12.5l per 100k
Not Fram, never Fram, if you like poor quality filters that are rusty out of the box go with Fram but if you like your engine do not go with Fram
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.
I’ve worked on Subarus for over 20 years now and almost every blowed engine has a fram oil filter on it. Easily 75%
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.
