Just use the fram filter CH2930, make sure its labeled "made in turkey" otherwise the others that are made in india or mexico have the same junk as all the other filters. Wix is another option as well, but youll need to find a wix dealer or a napa autoparts to get it.
This information is not applicable to his car. The filters sold on Fastlane for the 606 seem to be fine to me, although they do stick to the cap pretty bad.
