Note i said least expensive and not cheap, in reference to the indirect costs of actually degrading or endangering the vehicle...
I plead guilty to being the guy who generally buys the least expensive option for both oil and oil filter. Only because I dont know how to sort out the valid information from the [censored], and assuming if it was too bad they wouldn't sell it. However I change very regularily in advance of the normal intervals and have tended to have cars last a good long time.
If your main concern is just keeping costs down and not making something last a million miles on a perfect maintenance plan, which filter(s) would you be using? Are there any that are just flat out [censored] and arent worth putting on even if free?
