Well,
when you need an oilfilter, you'll go to a shop to buy one...
So, you"ll buy what's available...that's why you see Fram-filters on Ferrari-
engines...
I owned once a Russian car with a French Diesel engine ( an Indenor XDP-90), the French equivalent of a MB Diesel at that time and as good as that! I drove it 4 years, put 172.000 km on the counter and one key on the engine : a 17 mm for the drain plug. I replaced the oil every 5000 km as I did the oilfilter. The brand of the filter was a Fram...so I am not taking part of ...IMHO...
