    Hi All,
    Getting filters for my car (oil,air,fuel I usually get Mann filters where possible. But which are best?
    Mann, Coopers or WIX? These are the options from Micksgarage but other motor factors normally have the same.
    Any suggestions which are best and why?
    Thanks

    If blueprint filters are not available, I usually go with wix. I don't know why, but they seem to have a higher build quality when compared with Mann of coopers filters.

    Mann are one of the main OE filter suppliers. To the best of my knowledge neither Cooper or Wix supply any OE filters. So for that reason I would go with Mann over the others.

    I don't like the Cooper stuff, any time I've examined one of their products I was not impressed by the quality. (purely a visual assessment). I think Wix is an American brand made in Poland, hence the lower price, but the quality seems to be good. I agree with other posters that Mann is good quality and has a pedigree. There are also other quality brands such as Knecht.
