I just found this on a BMW message board, and thought it might be of some interest. There are several analyses of this sort on the 'web' and I feel the majority only serve to further confuse many peo

"Buy the best quality filter you can afford." Considering your dislike for oil filter evaluations, I can't help but wonder what criteria you would use to qualify one as "best". /// spitfires@autox.te

I don't dislike any evaluation of any product providing it is backed up with statistical evidence from a recognisable and respected organisation. Too many of the reports I have seen on the 'net over

My 2 cents on the article I have seen this article years ago and since then I always check to see the rubber valve on the filter. I don't remember if it stated it, but for an example: Look at a Fram

The presence of the rubber valve doesn't necessarily mean it works! I still have seven or eight Champion D102s from a batch with non-working valves. I've had individual filters from other brands with

Are you talking about the plastic valve you see at the far end of the filter can when you look into it? That's not an anti-drain back valve, that's a filter media bypass valve. It's supposed to open

The presence of a working anti-drainback valve doesn't necessarily mean that the oil won't drain back anyway! My filters have always lost most of their oil after a couple of days, and when I check th

My .02 on this: About six months ago I changed the oil on my daily driver, a Volvo 240. Cranked it up and heard a "foomp!" from under the hood. Shut down and took a look, finding that the Fram oil fi
