[ZeeOSix]

^^^ Yeah, it was probably spread open even larger when oil was being forced through the hole.

Do you know this for a fact?

LOL, so this is the stance they will take (similar to Apple). It is not a defect, it is a feature.

Interesting...four more weeks and I'll be pulling my FL-500. Guess I should order some Frams in case it doesn't look good.

Funny... and if you try and tell someone that motorcraft oil filters fail they think it's blasphemy. Glad I made the switch to Fram Ultra for my vehicles.

Yeah, I may just return my FL-400S made in January 2016 and stick with my FRAM pro synthetic 3614's

It kind of looks like the hole in the FL-820s from my F-150 I posted a few years ago.

This one had just under 4000 miles on it. I am sure it was bad from the factory.
