I saw mobil 1 oil filters in the store at $10.00 each. Are they that much different? Can a person go longer between filter changes when using a synthetic oils? I am thinking of using synthetic oil in my truck. |

There's a webpage about an involved study of oil filters. It's extremely informative, possibly too much so for some, but it involves objective and subjective data, and is very eye-opening. http://minimopar.simplenet.com/oilfilterstudy.html |

| Bought a 2000 Hyundai Sonata with the 2.4 litre , I usually use fram oil filters but their book in the auto parts store is not updated for 2000, don't know what filter size to buy? | |

call the dealer's service/parts department and ask for the part number.... -Chris |

Has anyone heard anything about Fram's new oil filter. What I did hear is that it can filter for about 7000 miles before it neeeds to be replaced. It cost about $10 same as the Mobil 1 filter. I wonder if it filters as good as the Mobil 1 filter? Jim |
|
| Sorry, but at this point I cannot believe anything Fram says or does. Do skunks ever change their spots/color???? Probably a very cheap filter at a price to make you think that it is up there in quality with Mobil 1 or Pure One. Why bother when you can get the best from another manufacturer | |
