Remote bypass oil filtration

[dvldoc]

That's kinda disappointing for ACE, looks like they are selling a foreign brand using the Purolator name. All original filters will have country of origin printed on the filter period. If it does not have this it's not the real deal. The country of origin is a standard any major branded filter. Dang can't even depend on Ace hardware not to sell fakes.

But it could also be they are selling really old stocks. The old filters like Pre year 2000 did not have these crimps. And were prone to leaks.

maybe its an old stock!!!! but you think it is good filter than vic? although it cheaper than vic..?

i check also in other auto supply its jsut the same as in acehardware ...sad to me cause i bought it last time at acehardware those filter have no crimps on the gasket and no country of origin printed on the side of filter only in the box...hehehehe....

[sirkosero]

based on the info in this thread,hopefully, better than vic.

hopefully its old stock but they began to sell purolators about a year ago. the box indicates made in prc but not on d actual filter

[kutangbato]

if i remember it correctly, the box indicated made in australia.

so dvldoc, this is somehow not as good anymore and maybe this one which ace is selling is on the level of vic or worse?

I was also looking around SM North Edsa's hardware section this morning, some Purolators don't indicate country of origin as well. But the smaller ones have them. Mixing fakes?

Real Purolaotors have the crimps period. And a country of origin, . The crimps on the gasket are a standard feature all have this on oil filters it's to prevent the gasket from coming loose and leaking if it does not have it it's not the real deal. No country of origin stamped on the filter it's not a real Purolator. It should be at least on the box.

If they are cheaper than VIC and they don't have what they are supposed to on them I would avoid them. Real Purolators also have 3 languages on the front of them as well.

Even Purolators brands like Group 7 and Pro one look just like the regular ones.

Thank you very much Sir DVLDOC. will compare the filters i saw at DIY shop witht photos you posted

The innova filter will work with the Vitara. As will a number of filters. But the Purolator L14477 or L10241, or Baldwin BT223 will work for you.

Remember real purolators are easy to spot, Always check for country of origin on filter then Real
Purolator filter have 8 medium-sized holes for the oil inlet or 7 oval holes and nothing but a black (or orange for the Pure One) diaphragm to be seen through them. There are 6 large crimps holding the gasket in place. Through the center outlet hole, you can see the spring for the bypass valve.
