    Hi guys! Please keep in mind that I've made a mistake at the end of the video in the result table. My conversion from square cm to square inch is wrong.. by a lot. The correct value is 317.24 sq inch for Mann and 264.86 sq inch for Knecht. Sorry about that.

    Salut Adrian, Knecht este deținut de Mahle, deci teoretic are trebui sa aibă caracteristici asemănătoare. Nu sunt sigur însă, o sa studiez si voi face un episod despre asta. Referitor la Hengst, inca nu le-am testat, dar o sa urmeze si ele.

    Great Video! Knecht and MHALE are the same company. And people do not change your oil every 50 000 km, like your manufacture says. There's nothing bad to put new filter and new oil every 10 000 or 15 000 km. Greetings from Bulgaria 👍

    Both are great filters and also OEM for VW/Audi, usually one of the two, on newer Audis you can find that it came from the factory with Purflux filter, but then again, it depends on the engine type.. Actually no filter is 100% efficient so whatever you pick, you made a good pick, compared to some no-name junk or fishy brands, this is top of the line. I've seen cheap filters that had more glue inside than they had filter material xD.

    You put a lot of work into a well engineered test! Although the following procedure could provide additional insight into the filtration properties/capabilities of the products under test, additional time/expense would be required. Specifically: 1) weigh each oil filter (new), 2) run the oil filters through the oil pump without contaminants, then record the weight of the following after a set period of time: the filters and the amount of oil drained from each, 3) repeat step 2 with a measured amount of contaminants. Thank you for your helpful contributions.

    In regards to being messy, it really depends on the orientation of the filter. I find pulling the cartridge filter from a Mercedes up and out much less messier than many spin-on filters, even when the opening on them is mounted towards the top.

    Excellent video. It called my attention because I had problems using a Mann filter in my Mercedes-Benz. I was using either the MB OEM filter or the Knecht and things were just working fine. Then I used the Mann filter and after 2 weeks of the oil change, I noticed a rattle noise coming from the timing chain during the cold start that lasts a few seconds, and then it stopped. Checking the Mann filter construction (I had a spare one), it looked very bad because of the closing at both ends and the glue used, which made me think that it wasn't performing as it should and was not keeping the appropriate oil pressure during cold start, which would explain the rattle coming from the timing chain due to insufficient oil pressure. I changed the oil filter using the Knecht and the problem was gone immediately. No more rattle noise during cold starts.

Like I mentioned before, once the Mann filter was replaced by the Knecht, the rattle noise during the cold start was over. As a mechanical engineer, it makes me wonder how such a bad quality filter can be even considered as a compatible part of Mercedes-Benz engines.

    @@craftedwithart It's interesting to know that Mann filters fail in other MB engines. Apparently, they are unable to hold the oil pressure while the starter is running, thus the rattle. This can cause serious damage to the transmission chain. I just learned that the companies that manufacture oil filters to MB are Febi Bilstein and Hengst, this last is also responsible for AMG filters. So I ordered filters from both of them to compare and they have the same dimensions and appearance.

    Thanks, nice test. However I don’t give much value for the filtration efficiency when it comes to looking at the caught dirt in the paper. You would need to do oil analysis to really know how efficiently they filter the dirt. There was a test of car oil filters in local magazine 2011 where they properly analyzed the results using proper equipment. Mann filter won that having one of the best filtration efficiency as well as second best dirt capacity. Knecht had worst filtration efficiency. When it comes to numbers it was 40% efficiency in filtrating 20 micron particles. Best filter had 50% and Knecht only bit over 20%. At 30 microns Mann filtered 90% and Knecht only 50%. However Knecht had best capacity for dirt but Mann was second. I don’t know how valid that 10 years old test is anymore, maybe they have changed paper or maybe not, but I personally do only buy Mann filters and change oil and filter every 10 000km. Filter manufacturers has to balance between filtration efficiency and capacity. If you were to have 10 micron 90% efficiency paper it would be clogged quite fast and the worst case scenario is clogged filter and opened bypass valve = no filtration at all.

    Positive displacement pumps deliver the same flow no matter the restriction downstream. The power demand rises as does the pressure which is why a pd pump always has a pressure relief valve. Some more modern engines have variable displacement pd pumps.
