Re: Which Oil Filter

ADV=Anti-drain back valve

For those that will read this thread and are not certain what ADV stands for or what it does: Anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the oil filter when the engine is turned off. You can find a ton of information about this online. As well as Oil filter reviews, ratings, opinions etc.

FRAM uses a silicone ADBV on FRAM Tough Guard and FRAM Ultra filters, and switched to a silicone ADBV on Extra Guard filters in 2018 because of its superior performance.
