I'm not a fan of redesigns.

The filter that was sent to me no longer matches the filter shown to me in the picture in this listing. You can tell the difference by holding the original Silver Series filter next to this cheap redesign. I've been loyal to K&N oil filters for years, but that probably broke the tie. I could try their premium welded nut filter, I could look for something else like Purolator, Wix or Mann. It's sad to see K&N take a drastic drop in quality while charging the customer the same price.

Pros
  • EASY REMOVAL: Quick and easy removal with wrench
Cons
  • Negative impression

Read before you buy!

Filter is either incorrect or defective. After 2000 mics I got a low oil pressure warning, I had never seen this warning before so I did a little research. I ended up replacing the $120 low oil sensor, the warning popped up after driving 20 miles. I did a full oil change and then I noticed the orange ring in my filter had collapsed. After reading some reviews it seems that the square filters are fake. This filter cost me $120 and could have cost me the engine due to the oil pressure limitation.

Pros
  • HIGH PERFORMANCE: Withstands extended service intervals recommended by some vehicle manufacturers
Cons
  • Negative result exists

Buyer Warning! Fake filter received

Have bought the same oil filter 6 times in the past, this is a long lasting filter, much better quality than what you can buy at a car dealership. But unfortunately only today received a fake. They look very different from normal ones. There should be a plastic cap for the universal oil filter2. The O-ring should be round and not flat3. Holes should be round, not square4. The box must match what you see in the picture in the description, not the black box5. A fake oil filter is much lighter. If

Pros
  • Fit type: Vehicle specific

  • Hard to tell

New design at Spare Parts

I have been buying the same PS1008 filter for the same machine for several years and I usually buy in bulk. The ones I got (3-4 years ago) were with 6 round holes and a rounded silicone gasket. But when my supply ran out, I recently bought a pair directly from Walmart and was surprised to get the ones with multiple square holes and stiffer padding. Not sure if I'd encountered any fakes, bought direct from Revain and was a little relieved to find they looked exactly the same. I believe companies

Not impressed. Leaked on my Subaru.

I made the mistake of ordering two of these so I have one in stock for later. I also thought k&n made those famous filters with a nut on the end so they must be good! Not really. I got the "Silver Performance" filter as shown in the picture. It fits and is filtered as far as I can tell. But it also leaked, which didn't make me feel good. Outlined me enough that I didn't use the second filter. So it's doomed to sit on my shelf until I throw it away a few years after getting rid of my car. I used

Excellent value for money for an excellent filter

I have tried several brands of filters and K&N came out as one of the best or at least in the top 5. For the 2001 Honda Insight we have long life Amsoil filters, Mobil 1 filter, Honda and K&N OEM filters tried. These are the only filters I would trust if the car has been in good condition for a long time. The filter itself is very simple: a solid metal body with a smooth finish. It's not very easy to tighten or loosen due to the smooth surface, but the little knobs on the end help a little. I…
