Wholefully agreed, maybe he should buy an oil filter cutter too, which should help confirm with his engine wear concerns. I do C&P and post them here on all the cars I service and share them with my friends and clients whether they want to do an oil analysis program is entirely on them should...

This sounds like something no oil filter is going to solve. If you think you have abnormal wear issues along with other symptoms affecting driveability that would be another topic for discussion. Do you have some oil sample reports, vehicle type/engine and mileage to share concerning your...

This looks like what a recipe for disaster when your dealership tech is underpaid and under-trained which I believe Car Care Nut guy made a video explaining scenarios like this that would happen during this tenure as a dealership tech. They just don't care and only do the bare minimum to get...

If you can't fit the Donaldson you won't be able to fit this Fleetguard filter as well, they both have the same can seam O.D. & gasket O.D. It doesn't matter how the base plate design is on either, as you discussed last time the issue with your engine is the surrounding casting clearance. As...

I'd get a 3 pack of BG 44K and run on can per tank fill. You can get them at Amazon or Ebay from legit online dealership sellers, which is where I stock up from.

Should fit most Toyota engines, however some newer generation engines may have a smaller mounting base face outside diameter and less surrounding clearance as one member here have conversed with me about this a few weeks ago in a different thread. If your car can fit any of the Toyota YZZD1 &...

At least show piston bores and their cross hatch on both engines instead of one, which borderlines me of discrediting the whole video and point of the engine mechanical health, otherwise nice video. Did watched the whole thing, 1 million miles is clickbait and should be 500,000 per car.

Yeah for sure. I will be re running the Donaldson again too maybe after this one from 10k to 15k to see what normalized particle counts look like without the media breach. Hopefully lol.

These are always coming out good so far. Really cant wait to do a particle count on one after 10k in the future. Thanks for sharing!

Forgot to add an extra photo. Since the endcaps were torn off with the media and wire backing intact. The media height measures approximately 2 inches long. Pleat folds is roughly half inch long with a total of 48 plus the seam.

Just get a case of 12 of these, which are the same as the Premium Guard / STP XL / MicroGard Select that goes for 10 dollars average. Except you get them at over half the price at RockAuto...

I'm running a Fram FE3600 currently and will be doing particle count on the next oil sample at 10,000 miles. While I do agree the former Original Ultra design had a lot of forward thinking went into the bypass leaf assembly such as the fiber seal between the metal end cap and leaf spring...

Heres a full album photos of the teardown after roughly 2 weeks of drying with paper towels. Media is very well potted with roughly 1/8" deep of chocolate brown colored plastisol. Media felt very soft on the fingers, the texture is certainly more finer than that I have seen on the previous pink...

On HPL PC5W30 for the second half of 10,600 miles. 17 micron Synteq media...
