Hello folks. Noticing premium guard KIA/HYUNDAI spin filters I see at work now not have silicone ADBV. Anyone else notice this?
Maybe in how you take care of them? A buddy of mine put 458k on a Kia Forte and it still runs fine. He actually bought another one he was so happy.The KIA/Hyundai engines don’t last long enough to need a silicone ADBV.![]()
If they are clones, why not use Mann filters?No blue KIA/HYUNDAI OEM clones.
If they are clones, why not use Mann filters?
That's the point, just get Mann W811/80, RA has them @ $4 or so. Why buy clones if you can get the original filter.Think they are made by MANN/HUMMEL to begin with.

I'll admit I'm not that familiar with the PG "Hyun/Kia OEM" clones. That said, doing away with silicone for nitrile adbv would be surprising. That said, the PG bulletin/alert on their filters for Hyun/Kia shouldn't be related to an adbv material change.
Not the first a bulletin has been seen from aftermarket filters used on Hyun/Kia. Iirc, PrimeGuard had a similar alert/bulletin posted on this subforum some time ago.
'IMO' I think it's more some issue with Hyun/Kia oil pressurization system than a fault in the filters themselves. And, the use aftermarket filters make an easy target for fault finding. My.02
I just used the term(s) used describe 'topic reference filters' in the follow up post by the OP, 53'They aren’t clones, right?....
