I guess they saw FRAM filters and thought they weren't shitty enough.
>>
First Brands went out of biz. They owned Champ Labs that made those filters and also the FRAM brand. So you see where this is going. The management got caugth doing massive fraud and embezzlement and bled the company dry. Then they went bankrupt and then FRAM and Champ IP got bought out by PGI Intl, whos CEO is a poo. They're currently transferring everything as we post. Can it get worse?

Wonder if wix has cheaped out yet.

Could be worse. Toyota OEM filter is just filter paper and glue. They come with a plastic canister however I swapped mine out for a metal OEM one.

I'm indian and just landed a 250k/yr technician job! Wish I was making it up, pretty frickin stoked. Before that I was a foreman on the construction side. But I was born and raised here, probably sets me apart from the others

>>28914904
this, it's actually the best filter you can get. sure the plastic sucks but we're already in the world of plastic oil pans, can't put the genie back in the bottle. blame the consumer for wanting cheaper and cheaper cars and blame modern safety and emission standards for making cars more and more expensive for the manufacturer

>On January 29, former CEO Patrick James and his brother Edward James, were indicted on federal fraud charges. Both are accused of intentionally bankrupting the company and fraudulently obtaining billions of dollars without notice from lenders and financing partners by inflating invoices for accounts receivable and payable, falsifying financial payments and hiding substantial liabilities from lenders

sounds like the previous management was the one involved in the fraud and only the jeets would redeem the flash sale. well they did fine with royal enfield and acceptable with BMW and KTM, lets see how the rest fare

>>28915067
yeah looks like it's the exact same engine. 2018 v6 camry. thanks anon!
>>
>>28915071
No worries anon. I picked it up since the tacoma came with the plastic one in 20 while the 4runner came with the aluminum one despite being the same motor. No idea why toyota does shit like that. Just make one good part and put it on everything.

GM makes good designs, it's the people that order GM parts through RockAuto generic that gives GM parts a bad name. Just pay the 5$ extra for an OEM pump nigga
