AUTO EXTRA 618-57060 CUT OPEN

[53' Stude]

Off the girlfriends friends 21’ Chevy Traverse. Did last oil change mid January. 10k on this filter and Fram Synhetic 5w30 oil. 38,500 on vehicle right now. QSUP 5w30 and Fram ultra filter on. Ugly but it survived.

Made in Mexico also

Actually that held up surprisingly well for 10k. I didn't expect that. The Fram Ultra should be an upgrade though. Thanks!

Combo ADBV and bypass valve. At least the louvers look good. I'd like to see how that ADBV/bypass rubber burns, lol.

Not good for the bypassing function.

What still chafes my rear is I see these vehicles come back with wrong filter Instead of 10575 or 22500 filter on them. Guess ya can’t fix stupid

Looks better than the Protec’s you've been cutting open.

The oil life monitor had to be -30% at that mileage!

May have been, said “oil change required soon” so

Pro Tec is a garbage filter. I’ll use a Prime Giuard before those

How well do these combo ADBV and bypass work ?

I always thought it was a strange design.

I don’t care for them. Plus, being nitrile usually they are rock hard. Give me a Fram any day
