Yes, I don’t care for the Nitrile ADBV either.

There so big they are holes.

You’re welcome as usual and right back at you.
I meant to point out earlier:
Though externally it looks quite similar to the Toyota OEM filter which is made in Thailand vs China, beyond the tapping plate and perhaps ADBV not much appears in common. The can is slightly taller and not shaped the same. The media and bypass are completely diffrent.
This filter was in the $5.00 range.
