The filter removal tool that I used was a little too thick to fit into the space between the filter and the sensor below it.
Being smart as I always am, I put the tool through the filter first (before it went on the car) and then tightened the filter after. After I was all done I realized the tool can't come back out because this filter is different then the old one (old one is shorter).
So after struggling for 30 mins I finally got it out by bending/cutting the band on the tool but in the end I still managed to damage the filter by leaving a dent size of a candy mint.
I started the car and once the pressure built up the dent popped back out on its own.
Did I do any damage to the Napa Nascar Select filter internally?
