Eh. Hasn’t caused any problems for the last 50K miles on the metro. I used to use Mobil 1 oils and filters, I just don't care that much anymore.

We have cut open filters on the counter at work. Fram is literally the shittiest cardboard inside and has hardly any pleats. At least try wix

Fram, like many manufacturers, offers different grades of product. I’ve heard that their “ultra” line of filters is actually very good.

Fair enough.

Fram deserves more credit for their better products. But by allowing themselves to sell crappy stuff in the first place, they really shot themselves in the foot, reputation-wise. It’s their own fault.

It’s like drinking soda, energy drinks, or eating junk food. I know I should but I just can’t stop. It burns/ oozes out a good amount between changes, sometimes I’ll put in 3 quarts, then think, damn I should have just swapped filters & put in another 1 3/4 quarts.

My wife's car has been drinking more Dino juice as of lately too. But we should be selling that before February.

Yumpin Yiminy Christmas!

You’re going to use a Fram filter??

Don’t you know that Fram filters are responsible for 100% of engine failures in every car everywhere?! Since the beginning of time!
