2015 sierra 2500hd 6.0 LY6 165,000 miles.
5900 miles in service

out/off: 6 quarts Mobil 1 Extended Performance High Mileage 5w30 with M1-113A

in/on: 6 quarts Valvoline Extended Protection High Mileage 5w30 with Fram titanium FS10575 (i know, but CarQuest premium are sold out in my AAP district).

filter looks good, end cap came off up upon cutting, but i don’t think it affected the service of the filter. wish the Mobil 1 M1-212A filters looked this good.

Looks fine to me, like it got the job done nicely. As for endcap popper, I go by what a well-respected member and former poster Jim Allen said about the phenomenon years ago, He said, "If the potting material stays intact, then spring pressure is enough to seal the metal to it and there is no bypass." What I can see, appears to be the case here. No observable slits in adbv either.

Thanks for c&p.
