Greetings members: I have a 1994 Montero 3.5 and considering trying a Hengst H13W01 oil filter for my application. Anyone have opinions/pics of one. I currently use the Fram Ultra. From what I know, Hengst is a German company, but the filter is made in Turkey. Respectfully, Pajero!
 
I personally feel that Hengst is as good as you can get. This particular filter seems to also be specified for Hyundai vehicles. What is your source?
 
I e-mailed Hengst. Here is the reply: The Mitsubishi Montero is also known as the Mitsubishi Pajero. According to our online catalog, the oil filter for this car H13W01. Kind regards, Nadja Zeiler Product Manager IAM Hengst of North America, Inc. 29770 Hudson Drive Novi, Mi 48377 USA T +1 586 757 2995 ext 719 F +1 586 757 2979 M +1 248 250 2228 E [email protected] W www.hengst.com Respectfully, Pajero!
 
I'm not familiar with that specific filter, but Hengst is a huge OEM supplier so they are perfectly capable of building a quality product.

Exactly! I couldn't find much about them in North America. While researching Mann I stumbled onto Hengst. They are cheapest on Amazon, but expensive on Ebay. I have an affinity for German engineering; however we are in a global market and outsourcing is prevalent. Everything is about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Refer to my signature! Respectfully, Pajero!
 
If you do decide to try the Hengst, please cut it open for us banana Get two, so that you can cut one virgin filter, and the other you can use and then cut at the end of the OCI smile But I'd only try them if the price was good. Otherwise, just get Wix or Fram Ultra smile
 
Realize I'm bumping up a year old thread here, but have you seen this? Hengst H13W01 cut open:
This is the Hengst equivalent of filters like the Mitsubishi MD352626 and Hyundai 26300-35504.
