Appears FRAM does not have a direct recommendation equivalent for it.
Going by vehicle application guide that shows the WIX 57045XP being used on various Chrysler/Dodge products, FRAM recommends the XG10060 filter for those same vehicle applications but is dimensionally shorter than the WIX

XG10575 seems like the closest fit
Fram doesn't directly provide a cross to 57045, but Purolator does (L22500), so put that in Fram's catalog

That looks like the one, have to go to Walmart and look, run the Wix on my 08 Malibu 3.6 and 17 Regal GS 2.0T.
The xg 10575 has the higher bypass valve rating like the Wix WL10525. I wish Fram had made another part number like Wix did. I used the XG10575 for years on my 08’ Silverado and would probably run it now on my 22’ Ram if not for the increased BPV rating. I still use the 57045.
Whats wrong with the Wix? If you want a more efficient Wix get the regular one or a Napa Gold.Have the Wix 57045XP, what would be the equivalent Fram Ultra oil filter.
Nothing wrong with the Wix just want to see what all the fuss is with the Ultra.
Aren't fram ultras cheaper than wix regulars?Nothing wrong with the Wix just want to see what all the fuss is with the Ultra.
I paid 11.70 for the ultra on the jetta, compared to 22.40 for the wix.

I posted a PH4967 in the other thread that had a purple ADBV. I don't think the design has changed (going back to nitrile) I think it is merely a supply chain thing. I bought mine on Amazon, but last time I was in WalMart they barely had any filters.
