said by DeltaElite:My Chevy Silverado has 213k on Fram filters....Dont use mileage as a gauge.
I get a minimum of 5,500-6,000 miles on ac delco filters
I only got 2,000 on the fram ultra before
(I changed it at 2,500 was extremely dirty and very black in color)
42$ out the door.
The engine also burned 2qt of oil
this is very odd for the engine since it never burns oil at that rate
normally it's 1/4qt to 3/4qt per oil change
which is way under manufacture spec for 6,000 miles (GM claims spec is 1qt per 1k miles). they set the bar high to avoid warranty repairs
I have to get at lest 5,000 to 6,000 to get my moneys worth on the FULL synthetic oil .
25$ FULL synthetic oil
4$ for filter
10$ for oil change
about
$42
I got lucky it did not turn into "sludge" I think the fram filters have something on them that turns the oil into sludge.
