Ya know that Bosch does not make their own filters in the US?

But the ones you buy online are German Bosch.....that is where I get mine. If I had to use a US made filter I'd use the Mobil 1 filters, they are quite good....but way overpriced.

Bosch has been pushing it's filter production to China FWI.

Mann/Mahle/Knecht are still a good bet.

As for oil, Brad Penn 20/50 in my M103, 117, 119...M1 15/50 in M104 36 and M120.
