So which filters are you going to buy? Most of the manufacturers have multiple plants overseas. You gonna swap out all the foreign made parts on your car?

Corporations are even more human in China than they are in the US. They have very delicate snowflake feelings.

my car is made in japan so that would be hard. I dont know if you know this or not but a oil filter has a very important job.

I know enough about oil filters to not waste money on a K&N oil filter. I also know enough about them to know that country of origin doesn’t guarantee quality and that the same company will make the same filters in factories all over the world. I usually buy For my turbocharged cars I buy the factory filters. Everything else gets NAPA (WIX). Only fikter I have ever had fail was a Made in the US Fram.

I genuinely hate to chime in, but when you said you wouldn’t buy them anymore because they’re made in china, that’s commonly understood as china=bad.

I suppose you could be just incredibly patriotic/nationalistic, so far as it doesn’t matter what kind of quality the Chinese filter has.
