Best Oil/Fuel Filters

[miked]

Ano ba talaga real life experience niyo sa Baldwin filter vs Vic vs OEM?

Paano niyo nasabi na mas maganda talaga Baldwin?

Baldwin nilagay ko last weekend sa isang kotse. Parang wala naman difference.

If I based it sa review sa net malaki daw talaga difference compare to Vic. But gusto ko malaman saan ba kayo nag based?

hmmmmmm.....sa aking pananaw lang naman.

actually hindi ko ramdam ang difference with respect sa daily performance....

ang pinagbasehan ko lang naman e yung mga teknikal na terms na ginamit sa isang thread na nandirito. beta ratio ba iyon, ek ek....

kumbaga (good) long term effect brought upon by finer filtration, yadah yadah.....hihihi

tsaka yang brands na yan ang halos gamit ng mga heavy equipment operators at kahit military (ayon sa mga forum na aking napuntahan)....baldwin, donaldson, fleetguard...

Personally, sa internet din ako nag-base.
Meron naman ilang posts sa net kung saan kinumpara nila yung different oil filter brands (brands available sa US).

At I agree na hindi mo mararamdaman yung effect sa day to day driving.

yan din ang katanungan ko sa sarili ko.

OEM toyota vs Vic vs Baldwin vs Bosch sa sasakyan namin. shell R4X ang oil.

Vic at Baldwin mas matagal mangitim ang oil versus OEM toyota at Bosch. mas mabigat din ang Vic vs Bosch kaya naisip ko na baka mas makapal filter media nito.

kaya balik Vic ako, opinyon ko lang naman, parehas lang sila ng Baldwin, readily available pa ang Vic sa mga auto supply.

mga naging taxi namin, Vic lang ever since, hanggang ngayon ok pa makina. yung isa private na, ok na ok pa din.

may offer sakin yung bagong Vic oil filter, double filter, kaso pang low viscosity oils lang, hindi ko pa nasusubukan. pang XW-30 and lower. may naka indicate mismo sa box na for low viscosity oils lang.

siguro yung mga naka bad experience sa Vic, fake yung nabili. mahal na din ang Vic filter ngayon, mas mahal pa sa Bosch na binibili ko sa Bosch center mismo (caltex paranaque).

Masmahal ang VIC now dahil sa YEN rate which has appreciated(partly affected by the BREXIT) so fast this year, last year the peak rate of Japanese YEN was ¥125=$1 now the exchange rate in August 2016 is now ¥102~99=$1, by this computation the yen has appreciated by 20% since last year therefore products imported from JAPAN will be approximately 15~20% depending on the yen rate. Masmaraming auto supply are buying VIC filters because it is the most popular brand of automotive filter in the Philippines, kumabaga masmabilis ibenta ang VIC and yung price ng VIC filter Japan is the cheapest among the Japanese automotive filter manufacturers in Japan kaya wala na masyadong Japanese brand of filter in the Philippines dahil hindi sila makacompete sa price ng VIC. Dati naglalaban ang mga Japanese brand of filters dito sa Philippines gaya ng UNION, NIPPON MICRO and etc... but dahil nga masyadong mababa price ng VIC compared to the brands mentioned they lost market share to VIC.

Sorry kulang yung wording sa sentence ng naka italic and underline, this 2016 products imported from Japan will 15-20% more expensive compared to last year 2015. For example if you bought an item for 1000PHP last year, this year it will be priced at 1150-1200PHP.

Ang bili ko sa VIC C-145 at C-806 ay P160 each, tama ba ang presyo? mahal na ba yan? Baka kasi fake ang nabibili ko kasi sabi nyo dito mahal ang VIC, ang Honda oil filter kasi ay P300+.

I did a test for the fuel filter vic vs baldwin. Around 13K kms, the vic have shown probles with fuel delivery. Baldwin can go 20K without problem. Sa performance wala pinagbago, pero sa cost malaki. Labor pa lang twice ka sa vic, once lang sa baldwin. just my experience though.

Pero what my practice is, I always replaced filter together with the oil. Kahit fully synthetic pa Yan. I've never change oil without replacing the filter as well.

Alam ko Meron gumagawa na in the middle of certain kilometers either palit oil or filter lang siguro yun mga ganun practice pwede Baldwin.

Mitsubishi allows 10k oil-change on FS oil as long as you replace your filter at 5k kms. You need to add oil to replace the oil still stored in the oil filter. The idea is, since Baldwins are built tough, you can skip the oil filter change at 5k.

[shadow]

Exactly what I was thinking. Lahat tayo either OEM then switch sa Vic after warranty wala naman naging problema sa mga engines.

Kasi iniisip ko kung for long term na mas maganda eh ganun din naman pag Vic gamit hanggang magbenta kotse wala naman problema.

Baka nadala nanaman tayo sa hyped.

Unless Meron mag test sa atin na same cars, same oil then filter lang ang iba tapos after 5k kms compare yun oil. Kahit wala ng analysis, kahit yun itsura lang ng oil.

Baka tama nga si OB. dahil kapangalan lang ng Hollywood actors. [emoji847]

Even a roll of toilet paper could be used as an oil filter. If oil is being changed every 5k, there is no or not much difference. Baldwins are desinged for extended use hence, it's better built. This just means Baldwins would stay effective longer. I think there's a discussion about this on the "By-pass Filtration" thread.

I also did not observe any difference on how the engine runs between using a Mitsu filter and a Baldwin. A bigger factor for this, I believe, is the oil being used.

Used oil analysis will definitely answer our curiosity. I'm planning to do this but my next oil change would be around next year.

Sa page 1 pala ng thread na ito may nag post na P270 na ang Vic back in 2012 sa Ace, naku baka japeyks yung sa suking oto supply ko ah

[miked]

yung bosch fuel filter naman na binibili ko ay from P280 last year e naging P205 na neto lang. made in indonesia bale yung bosch na iyon.

According to the records, YEN rate during 2012 was YEN 77~80=USD 1 so it was the most expensive time for Japanese goods in the span of 5 years(2012~2016), the current rate is at Y104=$1. Masmahal talaga VIC nung 2012 since palitan ng pera ng hapon ay mahal compared sa ngayon. Chaka usually mas mahal sa ACE hardware due to many factors isa na dun ang rent sa mall.

[papi smith]

Thank you for the explanation JapanABC, I checked the other Vic filter I didn't use and it had the markings illustrated in a genuine filter according to their website. I guess it's really a lot cheaper nowadays.

[anthon05]

Share ko lang. Been using Vic filters to company fleet vehicles L300 and Isuzu elf vans for more than 10 years with no issues. ito lang past 2 years we tried Purolator, its cheaper and so far no issues.

sa ride ko I tried Vic , purolator and Bosch. Wala naman akong napansin na difference except

yung Bosch mas magaan sa dalawa. And yung last Bosch Oil filter nag leak sa may O ring after 4000km

. puede naman higpitan lang pero i decided to replaced it with Purolator . its the first time it happened to me, naisip ko baka na timing lang may factory defect yung Oring.

anyway balik ako Vic or purolator on my future change oil and filters.
