Seems to be some confusion on this authentic fuel filter coming from amazon, one review had it being a counterfeit filter, he had them in a picture side by side one with the green membrane inside, claiming it was the OE that just came out of his truck , the other he had just bought on Amazon with the white membrane inside. I ordered a set about a week ago , the one in question having the white membrane inside , after reading that review I sent it back.
Today stopped by the local Ram dealer ,and asked the parts guy if he would show me that filter , low ,and behold it had the white membrane inside , which the review was claiming it to be a counterfeit , so now not sure where this green membrane comes into play ,is this white membrane just a change in the filter ? The green membrane being an older version of the same filter ? The review claimed that it was identical ,markings, box ,everything except it didn't have the green membrane like the one that came out of his truck being the original fuel filter from the factory.
This one I sent back, was in the same box they always come in , shrink wrap around the filter ,a green mark on the shrink wrap like they always have. I am pretty sure I sent back an authentic Mopar filter .
One other point the dates on the two filters that I bought from Amazon front ,and back were identical to the two the parts guy showed me at my local Ram dealer . The back filter both had 10/08/21, that one I kept , the one I sent back the front filter was 11/17/12, same as the dealer ???. Anybody run across these two different color membranes that are supposedly both OE ??
Also on Amazon there are several dealers that sell these filters ,some have the picture ,and some will have that green membrane ,some will have the white . Some will not show the inside of it , all with the same Mopar part #. I have bought a set of these filters from Amazon ,my records show 11 times ,never gave it a thought ,they always came in the same packaging etc ,and have never had an issue with them . Not always from the same Amazon source , some have been a Ram dealership ,but not always .
