I've noticed this more than once, and figured I would ask. I don't ever recall start up noise or rattle, unless it was well below 0*F. What I've noticed at times, filter brand doesn't matter, is this. I've taken off filters mounted with holes straight up, holes mounted almost sideways, and holes mounted at some angle to the engine, that some filters were almost full, and others had very little oil.
This happened on Ford as well as GMC vehicles. Does it mean that every filter that comes off with very little oil had a bad Anti Drain Back Valve? Could Purolator, Mobil 1, Fram, and Napa Gold all have QC issues?
Thanks,
