Better Than K&N
For all of the hype that comes with "premium" or "Sport" filters, I assure you that depending on your car it's all snake oil. I'm a major believer in upgrading car parts. I ordered a K&N for my Ford Explorer 2013 Limited, and what ended up happening is my MPG dropped tremendously! I'm not a fast driver, I use cruise control more than anything, and it was a horrible purchase. I then bought this one and my MPG increased back to what it was. I'm now getting close to 400 miles on a full tank compared to the 300 to 350 I was getting with the K&N. Now, my Explorer is in excellent condition, well maintained, all maintenance done when they are due. This filter is strong, larger than the K&N, air flow is strong and noticeable, installation was very easy, you just need to completely removed the filter cover instead of moving it to the side in order to make this fit! This is a great buy indeed, don't waste your money on expensive filters, don't believe the hype of the offerings that they claim, don't fall into the well organized marketing... This is indeed an amazing filter, much better than the OEM filter and much better than the expensive ones as well.

Great replacement for almost half the price.
Great replacement, cheaper than the auto part store, and functions great. I put some smell-good oil on mine, and it makes my car smell good. The airflow is great, super easy to use and install, the filter is good quality, and it's quite durable. i would recommend it saved me money and does what I needed it to do 100%.

Perfect Fit and Great Protection!
I purchased the FRAM Extra Guard CA10242 for my 2019 Ford Explorer, and I couldn’t be happier. Installation was super easy—took just a few minutes with no tools needed. The fit was perfect, and I love that it provides double the protection for up to 12,000 miles. I can already tell the engine is running smoother. Great value and peace of mind knowing it’s trapping dust and debris effectively. Highly recommend!

Good value and filtration
This is a perfect fit for Taurus-X vehicles. The filter is exactly the same size and fit as the OEM one. I usually replace them once a year. (8000km) Whenever i replace them, i always use compressed air to blow away from the old filter debris and dust. I am amazed at the quantity of very small dust these filters can contain. I noticed too that the pleats are changing colors, turning from white to grey -yellow color. This gives me an indication that the finer dust particles are getting trapped in the filter. There is probably better air filters out there but changing these Fram filters every years well before the maintenance schedule is good preventive maintenance. On the last 2 pictures, look at how much less sunlight passes through the old filter after 10000km compared to the new filter on the left. This is mostly due to very fine dust embedded in the filter media. This filter does it’s job. *FYI; the last filter i purchased is made In USA* Thats an extra motivation imo to buy these Fram’s products, no Chinese copycat with them!
