Title: Oil Filter Comparison
Post by: Jordan on December 27, 2018, 21:30:43

Found this on another site and thought members here might be interested.  Not really applicable to a Pagoda but I know they are used in multiple other cars.

I liked the foldable pull handle (like in the old fashioned kettle) on the one I got from MB, so this is the one I use.

look at you tube for other filter comparison tests.  Lots of them.

Aren't most of these tests actually of the visual and comparitive qualitative assessments of the build and material quality of the oil filters? Would a more useful test be, ignoring the materials, how well it filters the oil? Just saying...
