Consensus between M1, Purolator, and CarQuest Premium Oil Filters?

[Glenda W.]

Do we know if Carquest Premium issues for Hyundai / Kia engines has been resolved - or was that just with the Premium Guard brand oil filters ?

Hyundai actually issued a TSB to only use OEM filters. PG issued their own to cover themselves.

Just received the Pentius PLXL7317 - inspection looks good for the most part, but is this amount of glue at the bottom normal for these?

Yes, all the Asian filters with this basic construction have a pretty large glue seam around the center tube on the dome end. Nothing to worry about because that glue is stuck on very well. It's hard to even chip it off purposely.

Honestly, over the years there's been so many warnings from Hyun/Kia and some of the aftermarkets posted on the sub-forum, tough to keep up with them all. I think 'some' of the makers may have chosen to not recommend/list thier 9688 equivalent filters for Hyun/Kia applications. Just not worth the risk of them being blamed. But, don't quote me on that. I don't recall a specific CQ Prem. issue or warning on the current CQ 85344 for Hyun/Kia. It's been 'my opinion' for a long time that any issue is with the Hyun/Kia engine oiling system and aftermarket oil filters generally, just an easy target when problems have occurred.

All that said, as the OP's vehicle a Honda, wouldn't be a factor/consideration for use of the CQ Premium 84356. Lastly, another 15% off (no minimum) code popped up for those interested. It's CAPONEAAP.
