Bosch oil filters?

[MCF90]

Gonna need to change the oil in the Comanche soon and was just curious if anyone uses the Bosch oil filters.

 

Thanks!

Wix or Bosh the only filters used on my vehicles.

Used one once or twice. Construction is very similar if not identical to the standard Purolater filters.

Ok, good deal. I've read that its a good idea to steer clear of Fram filters, any reason for this?

Yes. The Frams are cheaply constructed and use cardboard end caps on the filtration media. The Champ E-core filters (Wally World, AC Delco, et al) are cheaply constructed as well, using a plastic matrix for the filtration media. Purolator classics have a steel body throughout and are closest to the pre E-core AC Delcos.

I use Bosch filters and have also noticed a small bump in oil pressure.
