Review on FRAM Extra Guard PH16, Long-lasting 10,000 Mile Change Interval Spin-On Oil Filter by Samuel Groove

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Old or defective for oil filter and accessories

Changed oil last night, checked for leaks, no leaks. I drove 60 km to work and on the way home the oil light came on. I get into the auto zone and the oil just pours out the top of the filter. When I got there I had 0% in the car. I changed the filter in the parking lot and when I removed that the gasket came loose and fell apart in my hand. I have $50 now and maybe a motor. I had to buy 2 5 liter jugs of oil, an oil pan and a new dipstick. The old probe got so hot it got stuck in the pipe. I usually always buy a frame and have never had a problem so I'm not sure if it's the seller or just a faulty filter. The box was sealed with tape to keep it closed. I didn't think anything of it, but now I'm wondering if it was a bad omen.
