USE ONLY ORIGINAL OIL FILTERS!
Should you use only Original mitsubishi Oil filters?? http://www.3sx.com/store/comersus_vi...dProduct=24438
Or is it okay to go with a K&N gold perfomance or some other brand of oil filter??? THANKS |

Stay away from Fram filters.

ORIGINAL: thestealth Stay away from Fram filters. Kidding of course. You know, I was watching the Discovery channel and "how they're made" (is that what it's called? lol) and they showed how FRAM filters were made...of course it was generalized as to how "all" filters are made....anyway, it's a POS. WIX brand is made the same as the OEM ones, btw and are a bit cheaper. |

RE: USE ONLY ORIGINAL OIL FILTERS!
I've read about a few failures of Fram filters and know of one personally. The check valve came out of the filter and lodged in the oil pump. I'll see if I can find the pictures of it.
I also use Wix filters. |

RE: USE ONLY ORIGINAL OIL FILTERS!
Fram did give them like $1500 for a rebuild, so not all was lost.
|
RE: USE ONLY ORIGINAL OIL FILTERS!
Well, that does make it easier to take, but I would have pressed for double that, lol.
