Default Re: Good, Inexpensive OEM Fleece Oil Filter

Don't get the L25276 filter - It is a paper Chinese version of the filter.

Went to MY Advance Auto and found what I THINK is the right one ... help me out here, ok, guys?

Mine does not say "Mann" on it - only "Made in Germany 080910".

It has the same coloring as the one pictured in the OP.

The one in the 76 box looks quite different and cheaper - no stringy webbing around the element like this one has.

Did I buy the right Fleece filter? If so, I am going back to get one more - that way, I am done buying Filters for the next two years or so!
