Be aware that some interpret OEM as Or Equivalent Manufacturer nowadays.

Take heed of what vulcanfreek says. Here's a couple of quotes from Filtron's corporate website.

"Our range is more than 2300 types of filters with a quality standard equal to original equipment".

"The FILTRON brand is intended for the spare parts market and the product is manufactured according to the same standards as the filters supplied to the manufacturers of motor vehicles."


I would have serious doubts that Filtron air filters are supplied to JLR as OEM. Defender 90XS SW

Vulcanfreak, you seem to be correct.
One leading UK web site has 11 deferent listings for P/N PHE500060 with 3 listed as Original equipment.
Its seems OEM is now a bit of a lottery.

I sent a question to the suppliers and asked who the OEM really was, he told me “Border holding or ALLMAKES 4X4”
No way on this earth do JLR gets parts from Britpart or All Makes.

Liked how they say "Border Holdings" rather than Sh*t Part..


I will go for Mann Hummel air filter rather pay crazy money for Genuine Land Rover

Depends what you're trying to achieve.

If you must have OEM parts, finding out who JLR is currently using as their supplier for these filters could be hard work (as described above) and result in purchase a very expensive part from a standard manufacturer.

IMO - a good quality pattern part from a respected manufacturer for a lower price an OEM will usually be better

PS: +1 for MANN filters, used them for years.
