Well made site from Mahle. Believe you will like how they present the info.

If you click on Oil Filter Number (8 digit unlike its Trade Number), you will find OEM part numbers and all vehicles where it's used.

Hey, does anyone have anymore info about the construction of these filters, namely the OC 330 that is availible on rockauto.com for hondas?

Surely they are better than fram, but how do they compare to WIX and Purolator fitlers?

After reading that recent thread about the "clicker" bypass valves, I'm hesitant to start using supertech/champ labs anymore, and may just stick to either WIX, purolator, or these Mahle filters.

I think Mahle makes Nissan (or maybe Tennex still does it) and definitely a lot of OEM german car filters. They're probably pretty decent, but I'd like to see one cut open

Champ has a marketing agreement with one of these two European filter companies. Champ builds them some US product, they supply some European product for Champ.
