Boring K&N PS-7022 Cartridge 4,906 Miles

[69Torino]

Wife's 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe, 240,108 on the dash today. 4,906 on the filter. Changed it about 100 miles early, but I am working overtime at work all January. That makes today the day! Had Valvoline Maxlife Synthetic 5w30 in it and that's what went back in with the same filter. No makeup oil, didn't burn a drop. Checked the level before draining and found it exactly where I set it 4,906 miles ago. Opened the media up this time for kicks and found a little carbon, that's really it. Boring is good!

Looks great for the miles. Thanks for the C&P.

Slight amount of carbon in the pleats probably due to rich start-ups in cold weather. I use to see that too on my vehicles over the winter months. Filter looks good, nice C&P - thanks.

That model comes with a handle?

Yes, I agree that "boring is good."

All the cartridge filters I've retired so far, of 3 different brands, look equally "boring." Nothing to see except a few tiny carbon flecks. Approximate mileages were 18.5k, 9.5k, and 25.8k.

Looks good overall.
I have several OEM filters still for my Santa Fe, but may look at these when time for another purchase (although mine uses a PS-7030, a slightly different design).
Wonder who makes these since they are made in Korea? Mann Hummel makes the canister filters in Korea, soo...
