I agree he needs to go less miles for his OCI.. however the oil filter has the dirt in the element... It did its job and is time for a new one.
Let me guess if its was clean you might think it was stuck in bypass..
Whats wrong with a dirty oil filter??? IMO that means it did its job.
Sure, a dirty oil filter "did its job", but you missed the point ... that is, you shouldn't leave a filter on too long on a dirty engine as you'll run the risk of it going into bypass too often. If the media is visually super loaded up in 7K miles, then that is a dirty engine.
I agree with that.. Perhaps I should of said that.. I figured it was obvious
