2022 Subaru Crosstrek
Out: OEM
In: OEM


Interesting theory: This is daughter’s car that isnt driven much. I had replaced this 2 yrs ago, and she has driven about 5k miles since. We had taken car into dealer 2 wks ago to have brake fluid flush. This seems awfully dirty for the miles and time frame, PLUS there was writing on the filter that I didn’t put on it. I think dealer pulled a switch and was gonna try and gouge for a new filter.

I think you're 100% onto their scam. I've had cars that sat around and had engine and cabin air filters not get dirty just sitting there. Everyday you hear something even lower than low trying to get a quick sale. sick.. but thanks for the update.
 
out was an OEM ACD charcoal cabin air filter at unknown miles (56405 miles on 2012 Chevrolet Traverse)

in is an FVP charcoal cabin air filter - it was inexpensive to buy at RockAuto and I won't buy another one as it seemed cheaply made but it should do better than leaving the old one in... ;)
