Thanks Stude!
Looks A-O.K. (Slightly wide pleats at the crimp)

At a substantial 7k miles looks like it got the job done. Decent.

WIX but yes

WIX but yes

M+H now owns Wix, so the are technically made by M+H ... that was the point for those who may not know. Just like one could say that filters made by Champ Labs and Fram are really made by First Brands since FB owns both companies.

M+H is Wix ... that was the point - for those who may not know.

Yes, for those who may not know it's WIX made. M+H is a wide umbrella that makes filters all over the world & quality is apparently different in some brands they own so it's good to mention who actually made it. WIX is not their strong suit IMO.

 

[ZeeOSix]

^^^ Sure, but it's the parent company who should have control of what's going on under the umbrella. Maybe Wix is just a uncontrollable rouge participant, lol. Wix was better before it became M+H owned and M+H DNA infiltrated Wix.

Build them like that every time, they can crawl out of the gutter they put themselves in
