This came off a 1985 MB 300SD. Unknown miles/years on filter. It was fully loaded with junk. The date code I assume is 44th week of 2008. Very well built filter. Made in Austria. I have no idea what that paper thing around the media is for. It just slides around loosely.

The media was amazingly strong. I tried to cut it with my box cutter and it barely went through.

Well [censored] that sure is sweet there man. Thanks for sharing OP!

Replaced my fuel filter on my sedan at 50k miles and filter media was only dulled white.
Granted I pump petrol in a newer subdivision.
