Sabi ko sa Volmax ko sya kukuhanin for P215 (cmiiw) which is cheaper than Toyota filter (P315). Sabi nya baka raw copy yun since nasa Chinatown/Binondo yung shop. Sabi ko naman na nabasa ko dito na Volmax ang official distributor ng ORIG Baldwin filters sa pinas. Plus may pic pa ng orig (Baldwin Filters logo and BT223 logo).

    Ayun, I just need some more confidence hehe. Ang mura raw kasi at P215 tapos US-made. Gusto ko naman sya kasi recommended dito at ng ibang Vios owners. TIA guys!
    Chiks, yan na gamit ko na filter for our vios and innova. Pareho na bt223. 215 nga each. It doesnt mean that if its from chinatown ita fake na hehe

    It doesn't matter where you bought it, as long as its original. Its their loss, not yours... well its your gain since your saving money on Oil changes... hehehe

    Actually a lot of parts distributors are really based in the Binondo/Chinatown and Caloocan areas. It's not that the Baldwin filters are cheap but rather, OEM CASA filters are overpriced.

    I have to agree. If you look at it, they repriced their repakced engine oils expensively as well. So for parts, ganun din. Another example is the belts, same manufacturer but just different markings but the difference is almost twice.

    Hi guys, me and my friend got a baldwin oil filter for our himda jazz GE. We got it from one of our friend, my friend had his oil changed yesterday, the problem is 1gallon of oil was not enough, is this normal with baldwin filters since the size is way bigger than the oem filter? Also the oil is below the H level of the dipstick, around 200ml short, is this okay or should we add more oil? Because we only bought 1 gallon each.

    TIA

    Kala ko ikaw yung nag ubos nung Baldwin filters ni Volmax para sa Paj/Monty. :D

    Sadly, it seems i can't use the BT223 on my 1.6L Altis with the 1ZR engine. Apparently it's filter is already replaceable media/cartridge type (it's tight at the back so i've yet to eyeball it on lifters to see the actual filter housing, unlike in the ZZ engine which is just upfront with a lot of space. If that's the case, its a good thing we still have other Toyotas in the garage which can take in the BT223.

    For those of you who still think OEM equals quality.







    You get what you pay for folks.

    Actually, you don't get what you pay for as the OEM stuff are pricey. In the case of the filter cartridge on the Toyota ZR engine, it's P300 a pop.

    What was the OCI on that particular filter?

    Nasty! I'm definitely switching to Baldwin when my warranty expires. For now I'll change the oil filter every 5k kms. My FS oil however still looks light brown after 5k kms.

    20k kms to go
