Fake oil filters may not be capable of filtering and trapping impurities in the oil, denying your engine the protection afforded by clean oil. Also, fake oil filters have no bypass
valve that allows supply of oil into the engine under clogged conditions. This might result to engine stalling and high repair cost.
