This is the new Subaru 15208AA20A filter that is made in Indonesia with Tokyo Roki branding.
Interesting note: The design matches with a filter brand called Sakura which we do not have access to in the US market. There are several YouTube videos of these filters being cut open and they all have a unique coil spring design. Sakura is the brand used by Selamat Sempurna out of Indonesia, and their website indicates that they have an agreement to make filters for Tokyo Roki.
Construction of this filter is excellent. This filtter has just under 6,000 miles of whatever synthetic 0w-20 the local dealership used before it was sold. Engine is the 2.4L Turbo GDI.
Pleats are straight evenly spaced, even at the metal crimp.
Center tube with holes, no worry about improperly formed lovers here. The bypass valve is also visible.
Unique coil spring design
Nothing gross in the can, just some dents from a filter wrench.
The ADBV is thin nitrile rubber, but it fits very nicely
