Does this ad for air filter really sell genuine

[swys42]

Hi All,

wanted opinion on this and if anyone has purchased from this ebay store. They reckon its genuine Pajero air filter.
Is is possible at $35 each? cheaper than Ryco ?

It may be, or it may be a "knock off" copy.


The advert says:
Please note: This is a parallel import and the manufacturer's warranty is (or may) not be attached to the product.


Personally, I wouldn't risk saving a few $ on an air filter, as engines are expensive!

It would not be hard to be cheaper than Ryco!
Seriously, last I looked at Repco etc. a Ryco oil filter was nearly $50 for the Pajero which in my opinion is utterly ridiculous.
I get JS ones online (highly respected) for less than 1/2 of that.

Never heard of JS Filters , will check them out, how good is the seal of air filter? Any dust get past?

I have only bought the JS oil filters not air but they are reviewed as being of excellent quality overall.

This is interesting too.
