Topic starter

Are fram 

oil filters any good? Or is there a better brand as I will be in the future changing my own oil? And is it okay to use synthetic oil in a new engine. The dealership says its what they use and all new cars have synthetic oil in them today.

they use Mobil 1 blend and I plan to use Castrol in the future synthetic when I begin changing my own oil. It’s a 2020 Toyota Tacoma. It has less than 400 miles since I bought it 2 yrs ago.

the dealership says bring it in change the oil. I said. Okay.

im a long distance truck driver and when I go home I don’t drive much and I’m still using my 2007 Ford Fusion I bought brand new with only 45,000 miles on it to get around in.

i know I need to start driving this Toyota and I will,but full synthetic ? castrol? And fram oil filters? Your thoughts. Scotty I love your videos,I’m hooked.

Yes, Fram filters are fine.  Yes there are better filters.  And yes, synthetic will be ok.

Look for “Fram filters” in the search box upper right.  Lots of good info.

Cheers!

If I were using Fram, I'd get the Tough Guard, not the Extra Guard.  Check this out -
