Oil filter LIQUI MOLY or Fram

Fram Oil filter

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.

Pros: pretty good, no issues
Mileage: 40000 km

Fram Oil filter

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.

Pros: common, good for two OCIs
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 13000 km

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.

Cons: filters slightly too long
Vehicle: BMW

Fram Oil filter

I used to use fram for my beater even though it had bad reputation. Couple months ago, it finally happened. When I started my car after oil change, it SPRAYED oil not leak from the filter gasket all over my garage floor. Now I just buy a few filter at time at the dealer.

Cons: sprayed oil all over

Fram Oil filter

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.

Pros: Wix is the gold standard
Cons: Fram sucks, pasta strainer
