Hard to beat the old Jim Crockett era NWA

I just found your post regarding the Nissan filter with the same issues, probably same manufacturing facility. Valve had definitely slid up the flange and inverted somehow

You’re welcome! Actually put a Fram Extra Guard PH6607 on this go round it had a metal core with holes though

It is made in Mexico. Possible design change from WCW or maybe an Amazon counterfeit?

No indention, second pic is no pressure on valve, first picture is when spring would be be pressing the cartridge down. When it came apart the valve was stick flat against the cartridge

That’s exactly how it came apart, I don’t think it’s upside down, it’s just not necessarily curved correctly

Thanks! Sure looks like it, I can flip it down into position but as soon as the baseplate presses it, it snaps open

I don’t think it was, when the baseplate would press against the valve it flipped up, surprisingly not any startup noise though

First post, changed oil in my ‘17 Pathfinder yesterday. Looks like the ADBV was pressed flat against the end cap instead covering the holes. Wavy pleats but no tears, filter is made in Mexico
