This is the third oil filter run during this OCI in my 2016 Charger 3.6L. The oil has now been run for 15,000 miles and 33 months. The oil is HPL 5w-30 HDEO.

Second oil filter:
The crimp seam was the old style, which doesn't come with perforated holes.
If you look carefully, you can see some carbon flakes still being cleaned.
Old style Ultra with the screen backing.
