Guess what? Fram isn't what it once was. Long ago, Fram made a good filter. They got a good reputation.

But then they rested on it. Now Fram filters are crap. Ask here, or on www.bobistheoilguy.com

People actually dismantle filters and look inside. Frams have the cheapest, most poorly-made guts inside of them.

It would be no surprise if they were also making their exterior cans thinner to shave a couple more cents off the price.

A Fram is $3 at any chain store. With a little more effort, you can get Mann (for European cars) or Wix (for American cars) for $0.50-$1 more.
