[QUOTE="monkeyspunk79, post: 305751, member: 4407"] okay, I know this subject has been brought up more times by car enthusiats than anyone else. And its probably boring to read, but I just want to know if anyone else notices this. Are Motorcraft filters getting worse? The last 2 times I have gone to buy the filter for the Cobra I open the box (just to check, you never know) and the top is covered in metal shavings/paint chips/filter chunks. Most of the others on the shelf looked worse. Now, one time, I admit I bought one, brought it home and blew it out with an air hose before I put it on. The Auto Zone was out of all other brands at the time. Tonight I noticed the same thing, and it was a different store. I bought a Fram (say what you will, this had no shrapnel on it!) and I'm going to give this a shot. What is the deal? Anyone else notice a problem with these? Or has Illinois just been getting shipments of defects for the last 6 months? I might be overreacting, but these things should be a little better quality than that. Otherwise, what's the incentive to buy the genuine Ford parts? And are Frams that bad? Why is there always a controversy over them? Thanks, and happy wrenchin! [/QUOTE]
