I would say it only matters in the respect that people want to try them but not everyone has a PepBoys near them where they can do so. People keep asking about other retail sources but unfortunately, due to the reason discussed here, they can't buy them anywhere else. I think some people anyway would like to know why they are only offered at PB.
I agree with you on the availability issue. It just looked like this may turn into a bashing thread like most do.
I'm on my third day with the filter and I'm amazed every morning I start the car. It's the same time to pressure whether it's the first start of the day or a restart after sitting for 5 minutes. And this is with an upright filter. Glad mine is not upside down like some.
I talked to some guys running the EAO13, the stock sized filter for this car and they have no problems with time to pressure. I'm running an EAO13 (oversized for her car) on the girlfriend's Murano and there was no change in time to pressure. I wonder if this problem is unique to the 20??? The 13 also passed the suck/blow test.
