i know the discontinued is in the stickies sorry to post this. i was just wondering if running a generic oil filter is bad. i usually just go to bumper to bumper and get the fram P8632 filter. thats whats in the fram book for the VE motor. also would switching filters make the VTC tick alittle less???

thanks
Steve

 

mobil1 filter seems to be on the better side.

DO NOT USE FRAM!!!!

 

fram?? why not (i belive you, just wondering why)

 

Cheap construction, less filter media (last I heard). There's a reason why Fram makes most generic filters for other people, and why they and Frams are the cheapest to buy....
