If you're interested in replacing the oil filter for your 2003 Ford Taurus with a FRam option, you have several choices to consider based on whether you have the DOHC or OHV engine. Options for the '03 Taurus include FRam Ultra (XG2 for DOHC, XG3600 for OHV), Tough Guard (TG2 for DOHC, TG3600 for OHV), Extra Guard (PH2 for DOHC, PH3600 for OHV), and FRam High Performance (HP16 for DOHC; not compatible with OHV).
The Fram PH2 oil filter is not compatible with the SOHC 3.0 engine.
The specific identifier for an oil filter used in a 2003 Ford Taurus is the ph2 part number.
