dailysleaze Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I always bring out this video when people asked about them. It convinced me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8Ezg0bkFiU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arjan Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Have been using them for years. Top quality but beware of white box filters inside the Mahle box Happens a lot in Holland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudmagnet Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 After watching the video I'm going to cut open a britpart filter that I have and see how well it's made I'm not going to use the filter for anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuki Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Genuine Mahle filters are the mutt's nuts; same goes for Mann+Hummel. Watch out for forgeries in the filter-world though; I recently removed from a friend's misfiring Audi a fuel-filter that looked exactly like the real thing except that it was branded "Bosgh" not Bosch. He then had what's best described as a "legal conversation" with the garage that had supplied/fitted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
