Then…. How do you explain why my wife’s 2005 Camry has 200,000 miles on it after using Fram filters half the time? Or are you saying a 2005 Camry‘s engine is not modern?

And my wife’s Camry doesn’t have a whole lot of highway miles on it. Most of it is back-and-forth to work. And it’s 18 years old. And it’s never had synthetic oil. And those tiny holes never had a problem with lots of 10W-30 and even 10 W 40 oil.
