Fuh! Google and found it to be from Japan. I thought as usual local product with Japanese name....

Yes, it is made in Japan and one of the best filter in the world. Among 10 top branded filters, Asakashi filter has the largest filtration area. The built quality is excellent, better than American made.

Parts of JS ASAKASHI Spin-on Oil Filter

Heavy-duty Case of drawn steel provides longer life and improved durability.
Anti-Drain back Valve - keeps oil in filter to prevent engine from destructive “dry starts”. It stays flexible in extreme temperatures.
Mounting Plate made of heavy gage steel prevents deflection (movement) at the gasket sealing surface and provides strong threaded attachment to the engine.
Inner Element made by "M"- type pleated, prescription-blended filter media provides more than adequate filter efficiency. The element has a controlled porosity blended media to assure complete filtration of the oil.
Plate Spring is used instead of commonly used coiled spring. That allows increasing size of the element within same size of the filer canister.
O-Ring Gasket exterior seal in between the filter and the engine body. Usage of height quality rubber ensures leakage free environment even in extreme temperatures.
By-pass Valve is a spring loaded valve assembly calibrated to certain pressure to prevent engine from becoming dry in case of high contamination of media or extremely low temperatures.

Normally change oil and filter at 5k km. Keeping the filter up to 15k km is keeping all the trapped dirt and also dirty oil which is still in the filter which will dirty the new oil....

I make a habit of changing both filter & oil at 5K no matter how expensive the oil is.

I just stick to original oil filters by the manufacturer.. because they are willing to back their oil filters with warranty.. if you use their engine oil..their oil filters..and the engine explodes..they will warranty the engine..

You put any other oil filter in..they can void your warranty..

 

[vr2turbo]

Even after warranty after market local oil filters are so much cheaper then Japan imports, unless the parts are critical ones then have to use Japan made ones is better...

Depends on manufacturer I guess.. Toyota if I am not mistaken..the ones used here is from Tomyum land.. Suzuki Malaysia uses oil filter that is Made in Sushiland.. Perodua ones.. Nasi Lemakland..

 

[vr2turbo]

Tomyum land okay mah! The cars from there sure the parts also. With AFTA, Asean made still free tax or low tax...

 

[Glocker]

If ur engine is stock, these ones are ok.

I would use filters with built in magnets for rebuilt engines like the mag power 2 from power enterprise

Buying engine oil & spare parts in Malaysia are quite risky. Malaysia is a heaven for imitation/fake items. Too many of them in the market. I'm very careful when buying items for my car. Most of my spare parts, engine oil, ATF, filters etc are bought from USA, Germany & Japan.

Agree with Ixeo. Manufacturer always find excuses to void warranty, especially major cases like engine kong.

Better be safe, use ori and recommended filters.

If wanna be "adventurous", then use filter cap ayam, filter from lala land, ciplak HKS filter, MegaPower, Super Duper filter etc....
