I usually use Hengst, last time I ordered I got the no-name cheapos. Interestingly my last oil analysis shows that at 9xxx miles everything was fine and I could keep going. I changed the oil anyway, the car was making those noises that tell me its time. Anyway I'd say that filter was filtering at least the normal number of contaminents...

Last order I chose three Hengst. We'll see how they do.. So...when these Mann filters separate does that allow a path for the oil to go unfiltered you reckon?
