Do you know who makes the B/A oil filter?. They don't make any of their parts - there re-boxers for all of them.

Thanks Zee - I had my brain on backards.
If it fits properly, use it, no need to worry about brand so much.
That said, after watching a recent video I'll never waste my money on an amsoil filter ever.

Fram Ultra
Or if you are really pinching Pennie’s go with garbage ProTec by Wix 
Just bought a supertech FL2 and compared it to fram . They are exactly the same except for the grippy can . Also listed for 10000 miles .
At $4 ,I will take my chances . I have driven over 2 million miles in my lifetime with no engine failures on cars up to 525000 miles . All this BS on here shows me that 98.87% of bitog members haven't a clue about oil and filters and the more you dissect it , the less you really know .
Oil is oil
A filter is a filter.
Change it when its dirty.

Doesn't Delco make two quality levels, two styles, or designs? They did when I was looking for a filter for my Buick a few years back.
Don't they all?

I get Wix filters from my work for my truck and occasionally a Honda I service for around $7-$8 a piece. That’s my first choice. If not those then Motorcraft for my Fords and Fram or Toyota for anything else.
E CORE nowadays.

Better start putting the money saved from purchasing that garbage into savings for a new engine.Or if you are really pinching Pennie’s go with garbage ProTec by Wix
A few of their regular filters are still metal core I believe unless they finally changed, and they offer "Ultraguard Gold" line for around $8
Both filters are the EXACT same including the printing (except for the packaging and the O-ring gasket).
Available for 5 €/$ each, but without the BMW packaging. So you get two of them for 10 bucks. I use to run these on my Mini. Given its synthetic and vastly strong media it easily fits the bill.
If you’re willing to spend $10, which is about the 85th percentile, I’d personally spend the last $3 and get the Fram Endurance. Leave it on for 2 OCIs. WHAM!! Best filter under $10… at $6.50 per OCI.
