Mahle vs Japanparts vs Valeo - Oil filter test & comparison

[@saqs]

This channel is underrated. Deserves at least 10x the subscribers

[@Laimix]

agreed

[@diavalus]

It would help him to get a bit more exposure, indeed.

[@SergiuGabor]

I would appreciate your help 🙂

[@rockraphlegal]

Actually, I'm pretty confident he'll blow up sometime soon. His comparisons are actually well made and presented in a entertaining fashion. And of course, very needed.

[@michaeljoyce2244]

I subscribed today. Excellent Channel.

[@sergiykud]

very impressive, havent seen anyone do the same "real life" simulations with what you have.

[@NATESINTERACTIVEAUTO]

I can't believe what was INSIDE these oil filters Mobil1, Fram, K&N. You make awesome videos as always. So i thought i would share what i found today.

[@zingzing5077]

Thank you for taking Japan parts into the test as these always pop up as cheapest options for the growing percentage of Korean and Japanese cars.

[@SergiuGabor]

Japanparts filters are some of the best filters I tested.

[@zingzing5077]

Nu știu de ce am scris în engleza?!? 🤣

The quality of the video is better than the test product videos produced by many large teams.

Mahle was my go for Mazda 3. Quality product. 👍

I'm grateful to youtube that it recommended me this channel. Subscribed.

I've been looking for a channel like yours since forever! Thank you neighbor! Greetings from Ruse, Bulgaria.

[@aymanabdusadek1154]

waw, what an underrated content... this is a project than an episode

[@fistofdragony3213]

How is this channel so small?! I love the high standart , its somewhat scientific and a decent approach to gather comparable data and information. Keep it up!!!

[@katalinks]

I didn't expert JP filters to be so good for the price.Every mechanic says they are crap but this changed my mind

[@theanabolichorse6250]

Apreciez efortul pe care îl depui ca să faci aceste experimente, mult succes mai departe si toate cele bune!! 👍🏻

[@danrascal4045]

Finally, someone is doing the oil filter comparisons right. Performance is more important that just seeing "what is inside".

[@4l5m6e1n]

Excellent video. I love this particularly because my 2007 Octavia uses the exact filter models that you test. Just one suggestion: point out the country of manufacture of each filter. I found that the quality differs even within the same brand depending of country of manufacture. You can see it here with Mann filters: The OE Mann filters are produced in Germany, but the aftermarket ones are from Czech and Spain (they used to be also from Germany). I used to buy Mann aftermarket and they looked exactly like the OE, they had that brownish denser filtering material. So I believe it's due to the country of manufacture, not the OE-aftermarket difference.

[@SergiuGabor]

I'll update the video description with this information probably next week. Thanks for pointing it out 👍🏼

[@johannesmarkert]

@@SergiuGabor Could you still add this information? That would be nice!

[@oli31]

Was thinking about you the other day, thanks for posting another awesome video!

[@ChrisPatrick-q6k]

More tests please, Kamoka is a new one.

[@gordsnieder4046]

Thanks for doing some actual testing, unlike many other videos which just show useless unboxing events. These are all acceptable filters. But you know: good engine oil hygiene is a lot like brushing your teeth - using the best tooth paste is a whole lot less important than doing it at regular intervals.

[@terrarium_adventures]

Really enjoying watching all your testing videos man, I also was surprised by the good quality/cheap price Japanparts! Been using them for years!

[@jefta88]

I wish I have seen this video before I put Mann Oil Filter in my car... From now on Ravenol + Mahle. Great videos by the way

[@SelectTaxi24]

Mann is the same as Mahle , no difference as quality just on price. At least in UK, don't know in other parts. And regarding the Oil i test a few on my audi a6 2.0 2009 and i can say Castrol Edge 5w30 is the best. No topup between exchange. MOBIL 1 took me almost 1L between (6k miles)

[@robertogomez8100]

MANN has always been a great filter, remember that this is a MAHLE sponsored video. I have used MANN filters in VW and BMW cars and haven't had any problems, how about you, have you ever had a problem with a MANN filter before?

[@SelectTaxi24]

@@robertogomez8100 Mann and Mahle are the top filters so i will say either do the same great job.

[@X11CHASE]

@@robertogomez8100this is not a sponsored video. 😂

[@hectorheath9742]

Impressed with the test set-up.

[@Haffschlappe]

Please test vintage USSR Lada oil filters

[@JoseSilva-ep2ww]

Japanparts filter also surprised me. Decent, honest and very low priced. I thought it was low quality material, but it seems to be ok, for what it costs. Not bad.

[@grequl]

I see this test as a general indicator for product quality, meaning that it could be possible that at some point in the product line a filter (bigger, smaller, for different engine) would have different characteristics (better or worse from the competitors). What I mean is that it is possible that for one particular model for example the Valeo to outperform the Mahle one. I think it depends on which products the manufacturer uses a different filter media or different design (more surface area, etc). This would be an interesting subject on its own since it is a mixed decision between costs and performance (e.g. is Mann/Valeo/etc. using the same filter material throughout all their oil filter products?) . I appreciate the effort that you invest in these tests as they provide some sort of unbiased indication on what we are all using (similar to what Bob the oil guy did for engine oils). Thank you!

[@alexandrusanda3787]

Also waiting for the Filtron filter, i have heard it is pretty good.

[@axlsane427]

In comparison tests, prices should always be stated. This will help to decide between the best overall and the best value.

[@Gabi-he6rw]

Bravo Sergiu! It's good to know what we give our money for. Just bought mann filters and liqui molly top tec 4600 for my 2016-09 hyundai i30, 280k km, 1.6crdi and I didn't know if japanparts are there any good or are just cheap. Next time I may go with japanparts since mann and mahle are about twice the price. Thank you! Keep it up :)

[@Sky-pb1qs]

Nice Sergiu 😊 my experience, just because my oilfilter brand is purflux, sometimes Mann, doesent mean, i use the same brands for engine/cabin filter, VERY suprised about HENGST Filters in your tests, so use it now for engine filter, and will try cabin filter as well from HENGST.

[@pana.2994]

Bravo Sergiu 👍

[@Fredrikstadbyen]

Quality Japanparts is ok, very satisfied

[@mom2threebabes]

This is excellent testing! You are doing a real service to the rest of the driving community. Without tests like yours it is not possible to really see which products are worth their price. I was surprised to see Mahle being superior to Mann. As a driver of two diesel vehicles (Audi and VW) I would be very interested in seeing fuel filter reviews. Especially ones that focus on the following: 1. Filtration performance of debris 2. Water Separation and holding. 3. Resistance to gelling/parafin formation in cool temperatures. It would be nice to also see performance of "Inexpensive" brands like FRAM, WIX and other "Budget" filters to see just how good or bad their filtering performance would be.

[@devotion4music]

Thanks for great videos! Keep up the good work! 💪💪😊

[@58kivanc58]

Waiting for some BMW parts tests. For ex: BMW original Mann oil filter vs aftermarket Mann oil filter.

[@kerndog3724]

[@AfjeerOf]

In regards to the Mahle filters, I bought one thinking it was made in Austria as it said on the picture, turned out it was made in China. Also coming from the box it had a few dust and other particles on it without a protective plastic wrapping around it. I used Bosch before and I would stick to them. Even though Mahle filters are pretty good, I would say you can easily find much better for the price.

[@Arkadietza]

Didn't understand which one is the best?

[@dimmacommunication]

I started following your channel when you did the Purflux review , I bought the Purflux L267D ,worked perfectly

[@alexandredomingues1788]

[@kalyankbethi1626]

thank you so much for the information it is really nice

[@burgerbirger2221]

Nice test👍 It's also good to have an European brand test. Most of the similar tests are American with their brands.

[@DavisVagalis]

All these three brands are not manufacturers of filters (except that Valeo manufactures its own cabin filters to limited applications). Mahle filters are manufactured by Knecht, but its interesting to see that media is different. From my experience, Valeo filters are manufactured by various suppliers. You cant tell this by country of origin: Made in Poland - Filtron (Manufactures for many other brands and even used as OEM in rare cases) Made in Tunisia - Misfat (Also manufactures for Bosch, Purlfux, Motrio, PSA OEM, VAG OEM and others) Made in Bosnia and Herzegovina - Mann filter Made in Turkey - Unknown supplier, but it seems that also supplies Champion filters. Made in Germany - a Valeo factory for manufacturing cabin filters, also supplied to OEM And others.. Filter supplier can vary by type of filter/market/time, but it should be manufactured fulfilling Valeo quality standards at the lowest price supplier can offer. Same applies to other brands. For example, from my experience Bosch filters usually are better quality (many types are supplied by Mann filter) but also more expensive. Japanparts is only a packager of automotive parts mostly sourced from unknown origin, with low quality standards and no input in OEM. Quality is really variable. I would not recommend any of their products, usually price difference is not that big compared to proper brands.

[@igoin187]

Thank You very goood test

[@derosmane4107]

Very good test thanks 👍🏻👌🏼🙂

[@npharkes]

So what is the conclusion on the filtration? Could you not weigh the filter before/after in some way to quantify the amount of particles absorbed?

[@Laimix]

Great video as usual. I always used to buy Mahle or Bosch filters for my cars because I believed they are best premium brands. Now Im very happy to know actually how good they are. Oil and filters are the most crucial parts for our cars so its very important to choose quality products. I have a request for you - could you try to get your hands on Mannol and Fanfaro oils? Im fan for Mannol so would be curious to know. Thank you!

Hi. Apart from the cool and interesting videos you have here. The one's for oil filter are a bit confusing about final result. From the results you have shown on the three videos what would be the top 4 oil filters: mahle, mann-filter, purflux.. I am a bit lost. Oh and thanks your channel is great

Genuine and aftermarket MANN filter - wait what? There are different ones? So I guess the aftermarket one is the one I can buy on Ebay?

Do a test on hengst filters please

folosesc filtre mahle pentru ulei si motorina si masina functioneaza perfect !!! mahle face filtre destul de bune !!

[@Zamolxess]

Ma fixasem pe knecht dar vad ca mahle sunt si mai bune! Super video!

[@burgerbirger2221]

What about Magneti Marelli filters? They are marketed as a premium brand, but are pretty cheap.

[@V68-l5y]

zaujímavé porovnanie , nekupujem Japanparts do svojej Toyoty lebo ich beriem ako lacné a menej kvalitné, možno by bolo dobré dať do porovnania aj nákupné ceny v €, kvalita / cena

[@hobby4004]

[@baderolf5673]

Do an oil test: EXTREME AMG VR2 5W30 GTI this is probably the best oil available.

If you had to choose between Bosch and Japanparts which would you choose?

If you going to do some tyres reviews. 😉 as i use various tyres and i got an idee also do something that people can say their opinion regarding some tyres that they use before

[@cristideaconu6240]

Excelent videoclip! Nu am înțeles trimiterea către Mann, care în acest videoclip apare sub doua denumiri. De cine sunt date aceste doua produse. La golf 7 ai scris pe carcasa Hengst la ulei și Valeo la filtru klima. Cred ca e vorba despre mult marketing. Spor la treabă!

[@renmedia]

Sergiu, vezi te rog la testul "oil flow" ca nu e corect. Pt filtru Mahle curge mult pe langa filtru, nu l-ai strans bine. De asta termina si primul. Se vede pe, peretele sticlei. Ms!

Ar fi interesant, sa faci un video cu filtrele originale volvo, Mercedes,audi, ai multe de testat 😆 ideea ar fi sa existe comparație între volvo original și Mahle care a ieșit câștigător pana acuma... Adică sa ne poți informa dacă nu cumpărăm oe ce putem pune mai bun. Success

only mahle for me from now on. I used to think mann and mahle are similar, but seems like no

[@mishju1]

Salut. O mica chestie ce am incercat-o pe un audi a3 a fost sa pun magneti de neodin de la harduri vechi pe partea exterioara a filtrului si sa merg vreo 10K km. La final am taiat filtrul in 2 si am gasit multe particule stranse in locul unde magnetii au fost atasati. Nu stiu daca e ok sau nu faptul ca am reusit sa strang acele particule in loc sa le las sa fie prinse de filtru sau mai rau, sa treaca prin el dar poate merita facut un clip pe aceasta tema.
