CEThomas Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Has NAPA changed filter makers??? I just priced WIX filters at O'Reilly's vs the NAPA filters I have been buying and the NAPA filters are about $2 less then the wix filters :hmm: I find it hard the NAPA is passing THAT much of a savings on to me :doh: I cannot ask the NAPA guys as they moonlite from the Auto Zone next door and just give me that look when you ask who makes the filters :doh: As it has NAPA on the box, they make it in the big NAPA factory with all the other NAPA parts :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWLONGSHOT Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I thought only NAPAs premium line was made by WIX... CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddzz1 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I thought only NAPAs premium line was made by WIX... CW From what I have heard/read the NAPA gold series are made by wix.

CEThomas Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 OK, I got the info on the filters :smart: All NAPA filters are wix filters, but the NAPA Gold is the true WIX filter :huh???: the other filters are wix, but made cheep to cut cost like using nitrile rubber valve over the silicon rubber valves to cut cost :ack: So go NAPA Gold for the WIX edge :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpm4x4 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Same thing with the Car Quest filters: the red ones are the cheapie line from Wix and the blue ones are the good wix filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
