One other thing on the filter the date numbers are on the side they will always be on the top, Now will that filter work, yes, probably higher quality than the vic even if it is fake. I would be curious what it looked like inside to see if it actually is a bypass filter or just one element being passed off as one.
Those sales guys at these places don't know anymore about these filters than what vehicle they fit on.
You can't go wrong with the Baldwin or the Titangold which is made by Fleetguard, we have not seen any fakes on these. Fleetguard is super hit and miss there.

This is who I emailed about all the fakes coming out of there. All the filters will have a country of origin period.
Pacer sells Titangold. Do a search for it I posted their info in this thread. They are made by Fleetguard for Asia , there is no counterfeit market for these. They are also pretty new.
nice thread, learned a lot. now im better informed (excuse me mr. lao) to protect our Innova D4D family car
just several questions sir, (i really had headache last night while reading those part code)
1. for Volmax Nr: 2448425 or 2448375 (am i correct)
2. baldwin oil filter for the 2kd-ftv of innova 2.5L D4D is BT223?
3. any update for fuel filter in D4D, fleetguard or baldwin?
TIA
Careful using the JS filter site, it's not 100% accurate, I have already found several errors on there.
The 2kd-FTV is one of those, it shows the Badwin B132 which is closer in size to the B34, but then it shows the Fleetguard LF3460 which directly crosses with a BT223.
You got to double check on that site or you will wind up with the wrong filter.
sir san po makakabili ng Baldwin Filter or Fleetguard para sa 2.5 Montero Sport?
