Basically, need to service the Pug like 2,000 miles ago. I like to use genuine filters where I can.
I noticed Neatcarparts on eBay were the cheapest for the genuine oil (Purflux) and diesel (Bosch) filters, so I looked at their other items. They list a 'service pack' for the car which includes both diesel and oil filters together with an air filter.
The photograph in their advert clearly shows a Purflux oil filter (blue with the gold pug/Citroen logo) so I thought it was a safe bet.
Parts arrived this morning and I have a AC Delco oil and air filter and a diesel filter from Fujitoyo.
Are these parts any good, or are they just boggo parts you'd get from a motor factors?
I wanted a genuine set of filters since the car has just clicked over 100k and well, just because I've always used genuine stuff.
Should I return it? I did ask if the oil filter was a Purflux item and the response I got was 'we will provide the right parts for your car'.
If I'm spending £24 on decent oil I don't want to skimp on a (potentially) shitty oil filter...
