Re: Bosch oil filters

Brian, A lot of Bosch numbers have a 0 in front of them for part 
number expansion. Some companies tend to drop it. My 2000 Bosch price 
sheet still has the 5 digit #. Oil Filter # 72150 is the correct one 
to use. I'm sure the Mobil One filter is good, but is it worth trying 
if you don't know the specifications for it. The Bosch and others are 
proven.
