You need to buy all of them and use them as wind chimes

Did you see the new Vietnamese M1s...I guess not since you didn’t tour the oil filter section
On a side note I noticed my Wally had the 25k mile Castrol Edge gold bottle on the shelves. I should have taken pics but was to interested in the M1 filters made by PG.

Was it $37
Oil filter Whack-A-Mole is always on the move.
No kidding. It seems that almost every filter has some downside.
I'm in the Honda camp, and the Premium Guard EX for my application is smaller than the standard 7317 size almost everyone else uses. Made in Vietnam and Korea? Am I the only one that gets nervous about that? Where are the quality Made in USA filters?

fleet guard/donaldson but finding the filters to fit an automotive application can be hard. they also post efficiency data so you have to make sure it’s what you’re looking for.

Yes, you might be.
Honestly didn’t look at price.
There is the proper PG. The Ecogard variant is called the 4610 https://www.ecogard.com/filter-lookup-search-catalog/product-page/X4610/2024-Acura-ILX/Oil-Filter/
Carquest Premium is called 84356.
I know some books spec the shorter ones. I have some PH2876 Parts Plus that RA sent, and there the short ones. I won't use those either.
Whak a mole for sure.
Can size doesn’t necessarily reflect media area. Media area is what’s important to me after ISO efficiency and of course build quality.

The Carquest Premium 84356 crosses to the 7317 size and is a little bit shorter. The Pentius PLXL 7317 also crosses to the 7317 and is longer than the CQP 84356 and closer to the normal 7317 size filters. @Glenda W. has a post somewhere showing the two side by side, but can't find it.
Pentius PLXL 7317 99%@20 microns 10,000 mile filter. Very well built. Almost if not identical to PG built XL filters.
Does anyone keep a database of all the teardowns?
Varios PG builds, compared to the Fram, all in the 7317 size.
The shorter one is the short can some cross tables consider a replacement - 2876

Based on that photo, the Pentius PLXL 7317 must actually be longer than the typical 7317 filter size. Here's the photo @Glenda W. took showing it with the CQP 84356.Varios PG builds, compared to the Fram, all in the 7317 size.
The Pentius uses a coil spring correct? The old Wix black can - with coil spring was a bit longer in this size also - maybe not by that much - but by some.
Yes, the C&P on a Pentius PLXL 7317 by @Glenda W. is linked in post 212.
Someone said you were going to.
@twX keeps a lot of data including the media area I posted.
2 1/2” x 3 3/8”
