A boring Monday begets four virgin victim twist ons decombobulated!

[OilyOrangutan]

So I was bored today and I decided to waste some money for my own personal internet and science too hahah. Also while I plan on staying OEM I wanted to see other options for my car.

Live in Canada. Al these filters fit corollas, Prius, rav4, and more.

The Motomaster MPH4967 was $7.50 before taxes and fees and that’s Canadian

The Motomaster MOPH4967 was $12.50

The Fram XG4967 was $13.50

Lately the Castrol CAS4386 was $16.00

DISCLAIMER I am a total novice and am happy to be corrected on any mistakes I make in my next few sentences.

As far as I can tell. The motomaster red can is a 50 cent cheaper gram Extra Guard consider the PH4967 is $8.00

The Motomaster OEPlus and the Castrom oil filter appear to be identical and one should save money and not buy the Castrol option.

Lastly the Fran Ultra Guard looked like a normal new version filter. My choice if I ran a deal. If not a titanium.

The base motomaster even says on the box it’s silicone it was black and I didn’t do a burn test. But I have my doubts. Probably the same supply chain issues effecting the fram PH 4967 as they’re all black at my Canadian tire now too.

I didn’t go crazy and get every angle but overall the filter is on display hope some people find it Useful. Regard.

Few more to go hit limit ALSO the top down look on each can is sideways sorry I can see how you might get confused with some baseplates.

Nice write up. I see myself buying OEPlus filters next time they're on sale. I think it's a Champ Laboratories made filter?

Thanks.

I presume they're the same as a Champ XL filter that we can get pretty cheap if you order in bulk from Rock Auto.

All it takes is a match or a lighter and 15 seconds.

Looks like FRAM pre-wavied the pleats on the XG for you, lol.

UPDATE

I was just looking at my receipt because I bought a couple of each filter just in case I messed up one opening it, taking back the Castrol and Red Can Motomaster.

HOWEVER, I made a MISTAKE, the The Motomaster OEPlus MOPH4967 is ACTUALLY $11.00

MAKING IT $5 CHEAPER! than the Castrol... so ya... there's that.

That's the newest update where they now straighten out with use, lol.

The pleat seam on that cheaper Motomaster looks a bit wonky.

The box also shows the ADBV in the exploded view to be orange. So something isn't adding up there.

It's a metal crimp seem I guess I didn't get a very good angle. But that head on is metal.

 

[ZeeOSix]

^^^ See what you mean, it just looked weird at first.
