@logain Yeah, that’s not a PG made filter.

The CQP that fits my daughter’s 2008 Honda Civic has a P-gasket.

Yeah, Pentius UFXL are great filters. Good choice.

What filter did your dart hit?

Nice pics. Would you please take a pic of both sides of the leaf spring after cleaning the oil off. We need to see if it passes the BITOG “ruffles have ridges” test.

That leaf spring is really sad looking. Unacceptable.

Looks good. What kind of relief valve does it have?

Microguard Select is a great filter. You should go read this current thread. It should help with your question. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/what-filter-is-considered-best-now.398020/#post-7314456

To be fair to the OP, he did ask what is the best filter “now”. With all the various QC issues we see here on a regular basis, the best filter “now” may be out of favor in a year. As far as what is the best “now”, you can’t go wrong with the new Mobil 1’s, Pentius or ones in the PG portfolio...

Looks good to me.

All of these filters are under the PG portfolio. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/posts/7106685/

Don’t you mean STP XL oil filters?

There is a different procedure for tightening oil filters that have a “P-type” (molded) gasket. You’re suppose to tighten them until the filter housing touches the mating surface. https://napa-filters.com/storage/resources/resource1/NAPA_P-Style_Gasket_Bulletin.pdf

Look nice & clean.
