Diesel oil filter.

[Rusty PW]

Yup. I alway see diesel as a fuel/gas for some reason.

Put a large enough voltage through it. Stand back.

Does the valve move with the cartridge? It's a good copy if it does.

Great pics, I have several OEM. I also have several NON-OEM, maybe I should take pictures like yours so people can see the difference.

FYI: The NON-OEM I purchase came packaged exactly like the OEM you have pictured, none of the ones I purchase came "shrink wrapped".

...same here and mine changed about 5% ago didn't have the green dot. Must be mold being dated in 2020...

I'd argue there's plenty of less expensive more important parts on the engine than a 80$ oem filter.

Please expand on that statement.

Well, said motor would run without a filter just fine, albeit at a lower longevity due to increased wear which would multiply exponentially assuming it at least had a cap on it to keep the oil in the engine. Now a 20$ belt, or a 2$ oil pan bolt, or even the 50$ oil return lime off the turbo. All of those are less expensive and would provide catastrophic failure if ran, even compared to a filter running in bypass or fully failing.

Good point, all relevant to the conversation. How about valve stems?

Don’t go to the dealer, there are plenty of oem products for sale for half the price available on line.

Nice job buying oem regardless.
