I’m just wondering if anyone’s running docs diesel filters? Of course they claim to exceed mopar standards.

Oem until warranty’s up, then fleetguard for me. I don’t support china (docs) any more than I have to.

I don’t care where they are made. Just curious if anyone’s tried them.

Noting but OEM. Seen way too many posts of people having issues running aftermarket filters. Why risk it.....

You can run Fleetguard now . They make the OEM filters for Ram no warranty issue to worry about.

China argument is dumb. Pretty sure mopar OEM filters are made in China.
Mexico. They just send us illegals not pandemics..

Correct. They are usually the same price or slightly cheaper than fleetguard so I don’t give the dealer any ammo if something related were to come up.

Do NOT buy the docs fuel filters.
I just had my 2022 6.7 shut down from fuel starvation. I made this account specifically to tell everyone about this. Just switched them out for mopar (the dealer finally had them in stock) and now everything is fine. Please spread the word, I’ll be writing other reviews elsewhere. Garbage filters

Baldwin likely manufactures the OE frame filter. Search this site for Baldwin PF46152 and you should find a post from a few weeks ago.

Anyone have proof these docs fuel filters are good or bad? From what I am reading everyone is assuming they are junk because they are made in China. Would love to see some actual real world data on how they perform. Have any of you experienced a failure with these?

I had to run them! My dealership had none in stock for months as well as auto parts stores. Geno's garage was a no go. So I bought a set from Doc's. 3000 miles later with 1800 miles of that was a trip towing my 5th wheel to Florida from VA and back and no issues. I do have OEM filters on order for the last few months.

Put Doc's filters on at 10,000 Miles have had No trouble. Difference in price makes them well worth it. Mopar 175.00 for just fuel filters, Doc's $119.00 for Fuel and oil and air filters combined.
We are SOLD on DOC'S
