Which brand of Air Filter - 2.5 V6

StephenEssex · 18th December 2019, 14:48

Hi, QQ

I am going away for christmas in the the Rover and giving it a minor service, just wondering which air filter from ECP, they do Bosch, Mann, Crossland or Fram. Is there much of a difference is any of these?

Currently half price so all come out at about £6/7 each!

I have a year 2000 2.5 V6 Auto.

kind Regards
Steve

If any of those you name made 'bad' filters, they wouldn't be still in the filter business. Pick the one you 'know' best.

I have had all those mentioned at one time or another. Does not seem to make any difference which. At the mo I have, Fram, Bosch, Mann in my stock. I also have Bosch and crossland Air filters in stock.

Mann + Hummel are the original suppliers of most filters used originally, so they get my vote

Mann or Bosch from that list, for me

I've got a K&N on my V6. Also removed the venturi from the top end of the Shannon tube and replaced with mesh.
