Looks good, media is pretty even. Can't say I've seen a rounded edge and silicone or maybe silicone colored gasket before.

As expected, looks good. You got the 24 version with the silicone sealing gasket. I got the 23 with nitrile, but that's ok nitrile has worked for me for decades. But, silicone a nice bonus. To what do you attribute the rust? You live in a road salt use area? To me, the CQ Premium the best value in PG made filters, more so with available 15% off online code.

Thanks for c&p.

Looks good. I wish all the CarQuest Premiums came with that P shaped o-ring gasket.

I do live in a heavily salted area but the filter was installed in the spring after winter. My daughter did spend 3 weeks on the NC coast but not sure if salty air could cause this.

I agree. Best deal going!

That rust is nothing. Would only be a problem if ran it for an extended drain interval across multiple winter seasons of salted roads.

I guess those last digits might be a factory designation ?? I have seen the same ending 10417 on the China made Service Pro filters who also use the PG family of factories. Most of BrendanC's seem to have the same last digits of 8748 so that might be another factory but he does have a few with 10417 also.

I agree. 6k didn’t even phase this filter. 10k probably a walk in the park.

 

[fantastic]

Yeah, I don't think these PG are coated or painted on that outer ring that rusted here. That would be nice feature but still not bad. Looks great & good pics.

Unless driven through salt water often during that time I wouldn't think 3 weeks on the NC coast alone would be responsible for the rust. Anyway, not bad enough to affect function. As an aside, I hope when you c&p the FE, you'll consider doing a flashlight test of the dome seal area as a part of it.

Will do. Also have an og titanium coming off my Outback with R&P in 2k miles.
