Rovers North Products - Filters Decent?

[aragno]

I see RN has Proline and LR brand oil, diesel, and air filters. They sell these as a Proline kit with everything.

Is this safe to buy either one?

I was thinking to buy a box of 20 LR brand filters and buy the “kit” every 10 months or so. That said, Proline filters are a bit cheaper and happy to use if no potential harm.

I am searching for Femco parts to make oil changes easier.

I expect to drive around 15-18k miles per year.

I intend to use 15w40 for my local climate (south Texas area).

The kits are great. They use quality filters, my last one had all Mahle filters. Best part is that it has the copper washers as well.

Any experience with the Proline filters? I was thinking to use those for oil changes between fuel and air filter changes.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I use the Proline kits. Proline = whatever suitable brand other than genuine Land Rover parts that Rovers North sells as an alternative. It just helps weed out the many different alternatives for a part by the different manufacturers or resellers. In my experience, they pick the best ones or it is just OEM made without the LR sticker shock. THe proline filter kit utilizes Mahle filters (maybe a Mann for diesel?) and I've always found it a good option.

Thanks for the clarification!

This is all very new to me.

I still use genuine oil filters, but everything else I am fine with proline.

Has anyone installed the Femco drain valve system? I can’t figure out where to buy the parts in the US.
