	I'm spoiled rotten (and don't have a hoist to get my skid plate off) so bandi does my oil changes for me...so for all I know he could be pouring a concoction of whatever is laying around the shop and pee into my Jetta to exact his revenge for having to deal with the skid plate of doom. When I was still driving my 93 Civic hatchback it got the cheapest oil filter and oil, which usually ended up being Motomaster. 171723 Motomaster oil filter...still remember 2 years later.

	That's unfortunate. What's wrong with fram? Edit: I haven't heard anything bad about them, that's why I ask, not trying to argue. I buy fram because that's what they have at walmart. [last edit 4/21/2011 2:25 AM by CDSbigsby - edited 1 times]

That explains it more, but basically, the materials they put in are not your best bang for your buck, even at Wal-Mart. The SuperTech filters actually at Wal-mart are better than FRAM and you save money.

And thats my whole point; for the same price at most stores, you can get a better filter.

+1 on Mann or Mahle.
