I bought a Porsche OEM filter from the dealer last year because i needed one in a hurry,it was $26.00 dollars Canadian plus tax and it had a decal with the Porsche P/N on it ...
Made in ??? ,your guess is as good as mine !

In the meantime i ordered four Mahle's from Pelican at $9.00 dollars each,and they seemed better made
and definitely better quality !

Cheers !
Phil !

The last time I bought filters for my 993, I was thinking they were Mahle.

OT: Mahle factory. Trivia: They bought Knecht filters, which came in similarly designed orange & white packaging.

You can probably tell from my pics, but that's a big place! Probably bigger than the Porsche factory in Stuttgart.
