I need a couple guys who have cut open oil filters!

I was going to ask how many miles were on the motor. I had a filter I took off my new Hyundai @ 1000 miles that was darker than yours.

I did not think it looked dark...what colour is it when new? I was going to guess it was your ARX filter and guess your driven miles based on that.

blupupher, the motor has about 137k miles on it.

Drew99GT, it's true, you don't get a cookie for your estimate!

AJ, "based on appearance" not based on presumptions!

427Z06, Terry said I could use M1 5W-40 without any problem for the cleaning phase. However, the rinse phase does require mineral oil and that's why I'm now using Delo 400.

Don't you have to preface that statement by first ripping off your rear view mirror?

IIRC, I believe I read someplace it was not a good idea to use AutoRX with M1 5w-40 since AutoRX's esters would then have to compete with the esters already in the oil?
