MIGHTY M 48 OIL FILTER CUT OPEN

[53' Stude]

Good Day folks. Some quick lube moron way overfilled the 24’ Jeep Wagoneer with oil and stuck this wrong filter on.


Did oil change and had to use scan tool to clear “oil level exceeded” light. Barely 700 miles on oil/filter



In/on: MOPAR 0w30 and PROTEC 57045 filter.

Apparently Malaysia can make good filters too! Thanks

Actually a nice looking filter, too bad wrong application! How hard is it to use the right filter and put in the correct amount of oil? Amazing...

Thanks for C&P Adam!

 

[Hootbro]

Thanks for the C&P. Looks like a well made filter.

I have to admit, that label with "USA BRAND" on it for a Made in Malaysia filter with Mighty parent being Grupo Gonher a Mexican owned company gave a bit of a chuckle. Weird flex.

It’s a black nitrile ADBV

Well, quick lubes that use MIGHTY filters must be lazy or use a filter with same thread pitch is my guess. Why I dread a vehicle coming back on hook with wrong filter on it and engine noise

Disappointing to hear a "tech" did that overfilling & incorrect filter. The filter looks good however. Don't see too many Malaysia made filters. Thanks

Very nice looking construction and pleat spacing.

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised.

You always will have retarded quick lube techs that can’t read an owners manual Justin. I see it too often.

Often it's a computer error. I have a 2023 MB on my lift right now and every filter that worldpac says fits it doesn't and both worldpac and alldata show the incorrect oil amount .

Looks ok. The pic of the bypass makes it appear to be stuck in the open position. That said, seen enough pics to know that optical illusion always a possibility. As an aside. I do find some humor in the Mighty "USABrand" in same part of the sticker as made in Malasia coo info.

Thanks for c&p.

Definitely looks like a great regular interval filter

I agree sir

That ADBV looks a little deformed. Was is kind of stiff?

Yeah it was rock hard

 

[Urshurak776]

Yeah it was rock hard

That's what she sa.........never mind.

For my Mazdas, it wouldn't matter as the OEM's don't have an ADBV. For cars that it does matter, this would be an issue at that mileage.

Hey now don’t threaten me with good time ahe would say.


I have noted that OEM Mazda filters don’t have ADBV tool

Thank you sir!

Is that one of the new engines that don’t have a dipstick? That’s what makes me nervous about those, you can’t check anything.
