If their oil filters are anything like their air filters... then hell to the no no.

I've used Mahle, Hengst, Fram and K&N at one time or other. There is a K&N in the car now. I've never seen a difference. What would you see if there was a difference? Other than the colour of the filter material they all look the same. They look even more the same when they are used.

Thanks for the comments, for now I will put them in the storage box and make the call when I change the oil. I might just do a filter change mid summer to keep an eye on things.
