I know this has been discussed some, but I wanted to see how many folks are using Doc's Diesel filters. If you're using them, how many miles have you used them? Can anyone report problems that came from the filters?

Thanks.

I have been using their oil and fuel filters since my third oil change when my Jeep Wave ran out. I've been doing oil every 5k and fuel every 10K. I'm at 41xxx miles and have not had any issues so far. Also just started using their cabin air filters as well.

I was short on time and paid the dealer extortion fee to have my fuel filter replaced late last year before a road trip. I just did a change myself and guess what I found in place? Yep, dealer used a doc diesel filter. I kept it and plan to go back and ask about it along with the OEM part number and $100 they charged me for the OEM part.

Now that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while.

Same here, and I'm up to 85K or so. After I got past the the free changes I went to Docs.

The only problem I've ever had is sometimes they come a few days after they say they will. No big deal unless you're living the mobile life and trying meet them at the place while you travel. I have three or four sitting at friends' places waiting for me to come back and pick them up.

Still, great deal. Great product.

I want to know why they charged me an OEM price for an aftermarket filter that has about half the cost.

Dealerships are allowed to substitute aftermarket parts when doing OEM service but they are suppose to inform and get buy in from the customer and annotate the service ticket as such.

Be interesting to see if they take ownership of it.
