"Prices are all for manufacturer parts, not 3rd party."
All manufacturer service items are "3rd party". No car manufacture makes the service parts anymore these are sourced and rebranded literally from the same producers who sells them at a third of the price aftermarket.
I work where they make filters for vehicles, mostly lorries, but also cars, and I can assure you that all brands are the same inside. Just different colour and branding.
What I meant was that the prices aren't for some potentially dangerous imported knock-offs.

I know, that's why I said....

'The power of accurate observation .... is commonly called cynicism by those that have not got it.
I'm really pleased it rained last night. However, it rained and hailed so hard that I doubt I'll be able to scythe the beaten-down meadow - I hurt my back a fortnight ago, but it's sufficiently pain-free now for me to have planned a scything session this week.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
The forecast here last night was 80% chance of rain for 2 hours this morning. Checked this morning and that had been changed to 70% and 40% for the same 2 hours. Reality - a shower for about 20 minutes.
Within the last couple of hours the Met Office weather forecasting website has gone from quite a sophisticated looking series of hour by hour radar images to those Michael Fish little Velcro jobbies that they used to stick on the wall chart and which occasionally fell off onto the floor.
Bloody progress. Why can’t things just be left alone when they work?
One of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV was a weather forecast where the letter F kept falling onto the floor, only to be replaced with another which did exactly the same. After running out of Fs, the presenter just left the word OG on the chart. As he finished the forecast he uttered the immortal line " Sorry about the F in fog "

@Dovefromabove I just love your sense of irony. Although you could have said another benefit of B$%^&*
