The inside of the bypass has a little Hyundai logo etched or stamped into it. So I’m thinking it’s legit?I can't recall ever seeing a Hyundai/kia filter with media looking like that !
wonder if its a knock off ?
The ones I have cut open have a leaf spring on the bottom and tabs on metal ends to keep it spaced off the can. The ADBV is orange and the bypass is sunken in more. I looked at 3 other C&P's and they match mine.I can't recall ever seeing a Hyundai/kia filter with media looking like that !

Maybe it is! That’s kind of crazy. It’s my girlfriends vehicle so I don’t know any history on it other then bought used maybe 6 months ago.The ones I have cut open have a leaf spring on the bottom and tabs on metal ends to keep it spaced off the can.

It could be but who knows from when and how long it was on there. That media has definitely taken some abuse. The pictures from mine were ones I purchased on line about 2 years ago. I now just go to the Hyundai dealer as I drive by on my way home. I get receipt with daughter-in-laws name on it for any warranty questions for the next 6 years / 75k. Price is about the same as taking chance on line with the counterfeits.The inside of the bypass has a little Hyundai logo etched or stamped into it. So I’m thinking it’s legit?

Welcome to BITOG
Well at least you have it on track to help. I presume girlfriend is less than 6 months then. I have same scenario with daughters boyfriend and about the same timeframe but he is interested in trying to get it right. He panics if he's coming over and hasn't checked his oil or tire pressure in the last couple daysMaybe it is! That’s kind of crazy.

Wavy Monster. Good thing it didn't have an eCore style center tube ... could have blown through media where it's flattened out on the center tube.
