| Post subject: | Castrol/Motor trend oil filters |
Now I’m curious, a few weeks/months ago I saw two ads for different companies one being Castrol and the other Motor trend. I know Motor Trend is a magazine. On these ads in the background they had oil filters with their name on them. Do Castrol and Motor Trend make oil filters? If so I have not been able to find any of them at the parts store or online. Does anyone have any info on this? |

Most entities, like Motor Trend, will sell there name for licensing agreements. Motor Trend filters can be found at Target. I am not sure where else. Also, like most things, I'd bet that the filters are re-branded from other companies. Until the world got so small and it became easier/cheaper to bring in off-shore goods, most brands of any one item were made by very few compaies ( antifreeze, for instance. Or even aspirin) But now, who nows what third world "factory" superglued an off-brand together? |

No. They are probably made by either Fram or (if you're lucky) Purolator. |
