- I have gone into the Fram filters in the past, but now I dig a little deeper why the Fram Tough Guard is more expensive then Fram Extra Guard.
Off the Fram website I see that the Fram Extra Guard filtration is blend of fiber and resin with a filtration of 95%
The tough guard fitration is of synthetic blend for 99% effiency - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I currently have extra guard filters on both my vehicles. But I change my oil every 3,000 miles.
You look after your vehicle's, you do not over burden your oil filters with extra mileage. I like to hear comment's where vehicle owners look after there engines the right way. Thanks Mark.
Thanks for the video, good to see visually the difference in those two filters, looks like the tough guard is a big upcharge for the media.
Yes seems kinda excessive for a bit better filtration media. Thanks Jimmy 😁
Been using cram for 30 + years millions of miles with fram and no problems at all I like them they also make filters for many many as OEM on many car companies Most people don’t know that
Glad your happy with them, use what makes you happy.👍
The Tough Guard uses a synthetic blend media hence the better filtration and higher price.
Don't agree with that much higher price.
I opened a tg. End 1/8 off center to allow oil past leaf spring. Puro one or boss now! I did have an Xtra guard come apart years ago. Black ⚫️ 0il at 3000 miles. 0nce we see black we never go back? Lol loving my amber oil at 2000 plus miles! Syn helps alot!
Thanks Loren, yes I personally stay away from the Fram name nowadays.
I use the Tough Guards regularly. Never an issue. I do 5k mile oil changes
Glad to hear never an issue, I have seen a lot of sloppy construction on both orange and grey can.
The only thing going for these Frams are that they are made here. If they were the last filters available on Earth, yes I would have no chance but to use them
Your point right on, if it's all we had then we would use them.
if Fram was spending 2 cents extra to put more media to make the pleats even and regular I might consider buying them, because uneven pleats tend to tear.
So right Bud, my belief is if it's a more open area then more pressure will build up. I could be wrong but I like even pleats to have even pressure.
The orange can of death vs the silver can "Avoid the orange can Avoid the FRAM!" ™️
Thanks Daewoo, 🤣
I don't think any filter should stay in past 5000 k 😋
Yeah keeping an oil filter in to long leads to engine failure which leads to anger then leads you to the dark side.😉
@@crazybillsgarage Oh yes the Dark side 😅
@LooneyFarmGuy Fram is the dark side.

Fram is the “no thinking” choice for most. Its a recognisable brand that you can find anywhere. Not everyone is an oil nerd or cares. Would I use one? No but Im just happy people are changing their oil when needed
Exactly oil changes count for most of the wear in an engine, any filter will fail uf ran to long.😉
@@crazybillsgarage years ago i went to an audi training class. The teacher was from Germany and said Audi suggests filter replacement every second oil change or 30000km iirc. I said an oil filter is cheaper than an engine and he scaled me saying “no its what we engineered” meanwhile a few months later they had a TSB for 1.8T oil sludge issues and a larger oil filter…
@simplygregsterev I agree with you, change it every time
I WOULD ONLY USE FRAM ULTRA,TITIATUM, ENDURANCE THESE 3 FRAM ARE 💯 ON THE MONEY IN MY BOOK BUT NEVER ORANGE
I agree with you, those are better made filters.
🧻 FRAM
I have to stay non partial, but since I don't use either I agree.
So ones terrible and the other one is terribler 😂
I see you are a very wise person.
