FVP XL Oil Filter

[The Critic]

Saw a recent C&P of a FVP XL but it appeared to be of an older stock USA one.

Does anyone know if the newer ones are still Mann/Hummel or are they using a different vendor now?

The expanded view in the info sheet and the 10k recommendation are consistent with Premium Guard products. Who knows if all their filter models are like this or they use different manufacturers for specific models.

Another clue it's not a PGI product is that the sealing ring at the base is painted black like the can. Filters under the PGI umbrella all have a bare metal ring, not painted the same color as the can.
