You might want to re-read my post then. Frams are okay, and they do their job just fine. But their many filters out there that are better for money you pay for fram.... Heck, ST filters are pretty good filters for the money..

Which is fine, but there are many good oils to choose from out there.... My Cav coupe loves it's Napa synthetic.

Thanks for the info....and I do double check my filters. ALL of my filters are Hengst....... I pick em up at AAP for 4.69 a filter. A good price for a good filter!

Yep, and Advance Auto too....

What part store do you have by you?

For most of the general public, Fram will be just fine. I expect better, so I buy better. I'm the only person I know who had a Fram problem (media came apart in the can) when I had the wagon, so they have to be decent. My neighbor has used them for over 20 years with no issues.....

Nice filter read, but it's a little misleading though, DF. The choice of filter you use depends quite a bit on your driving style, and your OCI (oil change interval) Some people do dino and 3k OCIs, others may use a synthetic and 10k OCIs....it just depends. Frams are okay , but as you can see by the construction, I would stick with 3000 mile oil changes. Since I ran cartridge filters in my cars (all Ecotecs), I just need a good flowing filter. I was running Wix/Napa Golds (very good filter, IMO), but I'm going back to AC Delcos, as they are not only well made, but made in the USA too. Because I'm running synthetic in all my cars (Mobil 1, Napa Synthetic, Pennzoil Platinum), I'm bumping them all to 4k-4.5k OCIs ( We do a bunch of city driving) STP and ST filters are made by Champ Labs (they also make many AC Delco filters), and they will be just fine to use and sleep well at night. Of course, I think Wix/Napa Golds/Carquest reds are the best bang for buck.......

Yum!
