The one on the left run ~5300 mi/10 months on 3.0L Accord (~126k mi) with Amazon Basics 0w20. Another BP3323 and Castrol GTX Full Synthetic 0w20 went back. One on the right run ~5500 mi/1year 3.5L Honda with Castrol EDGE Extended Performance (Gold) 0w20. Another 3323 and Mobil 1 Truck and SUV 0w20 went back. Both oil choices, because of promos. Last year Amazon had GTX FS for less than Super Tech FS. AAP had closeout on M1 T&S less than old Super Tech and current Havoline 6qt boxes. Missed the AAP jug closeout but quart closeout still solid. Other than the fact that I can't get these anymore and for ~$4.50-$5 @ RA including shipping, I've haven't found anything not to like. I can get its virtual clone the PL141610 though. Occasionally, Amazon will have a coupon clip making them~$8 for one. Similar range to the CQ Blue now.

My long time Harbor Freight Exhaust Cut Off Tool--->Oil filter cutter. I paid ~$15, 2010-2011. Taiwan made, works great.

Both look good. Which one would you say is cleaner after their run w/both being used about the same mileage?
Honestly, looking at the media again, both look about the same to me. And, I did wick the left filter longer than the right as initially was only planning to do one filter. When I look at the pleats on my c&ps, other than the inner pleat crease being a little darker, I never see anything remarkable. That's good I would think.

Those look pretty good, I recall previous YT C&Ps where the Bosch's were disappointing with excessive sloppy glue, but they have since improved.

Actually, the US made Bosch Prem like topic have been quality filters, for me at least. But, since they moved coo to Mexico, multiple anecdotes here and on youtube show quality has gone wayy down. I wouldn't even consider purchase now.

What is your next replacement filter after those two are used?
 
I bought all that Menards had when they clearanced them out. My last one is on my 2018 with a belly full of Schaffers. I never understood the negativity around these? Never a whisper of start up rattle and consistent quality.

With them gone my stash will be down to my more preferred level. It will likely be either BP clone P1 PL14610, or CQ Blue 84356. As I help maintain a Nissan Rogue and neighbor's 04 Civic, got an L14610 and a couple TL14610 also ready for use. Happy though that I stashed the topic filters from RA before the now proven disappointing change to Mexico coo. Hope that's not TMI. :)

Very good information. :)
Agree w/what we've seen on COO Mexico. (n)
Even some of those TL's seem to be pretty good but the PL should offer silicon ADBV gasket. Thanks!
