Hi Guys - I have a 2.8L Y61 1998 Nissan Patrol GU Turbo Diesel 5 Speed Manual and am looking to do an Oil & Filter change.

Any hints on a quality brand and just as important any brands to avoid ???


Regards
Wayne

Hi Wayne

Bought an oil filter at repco today, their brand is "silverline" or silver something, It was a fair bit cheaper too, $15 for the oil filter, and I got the same brand in fuel filter for $14ish.

Saved a bit of coin which is always good.

Silver line is their step down brand from their repco brand.

Fair enough, guess I was told the wrong thing, I'll give it a go anyways, and if its good, I'll use it again!

Cheers.

I'd use them.....probably the only difference is white vs black paint :-)
