What’s your filter for beater car/ seldom driven vehicle?

[53' Stude]

Knowing me as most do it’s a FRAM TOUGH GUARD or prime guard.

how about you folks?

I stick to OEM stuff, even in my beater, so that would be Mann/Mahle/Hengst.

I like the WALMART ST filter on my Civic.

 

[vw7674]

AC Delco/ Fram / Supertech if I can lay my hands on one.

I tend to stick with one filter. Used Bosch on my old RAV4 and Corolla. Will stick with Fram Ultra on Camry and OEM on new RAV4.

I would have probably gone ST or orange Fram in the 06 Sentra BUT the filter is a hassle where it's located. Requires ramps and some extra time. Since I plan on doing 3 3k OCI's initially to make sure things are good and clean I went with a Fram Tough Guard and will have it on for at least 6k and probably 9k. Depends on the feeling I get when I drain the old oil.

I say feeling because it isn't science! New to me bought at 159k and I do know it got regular oil changes with bulk oil but not sure what interval.

Some flavor of Fram.

WIX

 

[Duffyjr]

I guess my beater would be my Sierra since I drive it on salty roads this time of year but I care just as much about it as I do my Lucerne so they both get either Wix/Gold or TG. This year was TG so next year will be Wix/Gold.

I'd go with one that had the synthetic media I'm not a great believer in Cellulose filters going over a year.
