Mann-Filter HU718/5X Engine Oil Filter

High quality and a perfect fit for my 2002 Mercedes SL500. I’d recently bought a Mercedes oil filter assembly (I was concerned that the plastic on the original was going the way of all old plastic) and it came with a Mercedes branded filter. It was identical to this Mann filter with the ONLY exception being the Mercedes branding embossed on the filter. I also had a filter made by another reputable manufacturer, Hengst; the difference between them was day and night. The Mann/Mercedes filter is much more substantial and robust. It is heavier and is reinforced around the (sturdier) paper filter material…a value added feature lacking in the Hengst filter.I don’t know how much of a price difference there is between the two but it can’t be much…the Hengst filter may even cost more, you never know until you look it up BUT I digress…if you want to use the best filter available in your car this IS the one. If it’s good enough for a stickler brand like Mercedes (they ARE the OEM) it’s good enough for me, and should be good enough for you as well.

自分でオイル交換したとき使いました。これとは別にマレーのフィルタも買ったのですが、構造的にはMANNのほうが似ています。純正は内側に金網が貼ってあり、これにはありません。それ以外はソックリです。

What can I say, arrived fine and on time. Item as described.

Since I do these oil changes myself, I want to use quality products to maintain at least a factory level of performance for longevity.
