Horror stories about Silverline oil filter?

Repco gave me this oil filter because on the oil and filter deal the Repco filter had mysteriously run out. I named the title because expect horror stories. it has on box " Can use R2620P"

Why? There are many cross over filters. And don't use if you don't want to, don't think is compulsory.

It looks Cheap. They say oil and filter then won't honour advetisment. I had to point out there were no exclusions. Then was offered Silverline. Sure I don't have to use it but I don't want engine damage if I do.

How does an oil filter look cheap? I assume its a normal looking cylinder type one with a threaded hole and not a cartridge. Geez oil filters are cheap, just buy the one you want and be done. And many would think the repco or ryco ones were crap too. Gotta have one with ya cars name on it ya know.

Who do you think might make both the Silverline and the Repco oil filters?

Cheap is relative to income? Lack of Big money. Boohoo ay.

well Mark as it turns out a R2620P is a cartridge

In that case, it could well look cheap indeed.

Agreed, they are cheaply made junk.
