Old style Champion COS3593A from RockAuto

[wemay]

They look robust. Anyone know how old these are or when They changed over to the new design?

Yours came in boxes? No fair. Mine were loose!

What's the asterix (*) after "99% efficiency" say on the box?

seems to be made in 2014, all the filters I've got were 2016 & 2017 but no boxes
Wemay, are they different from the ones you've got from Pepboys?

Thanks Linctex,

I commented in that thread but for some reason thought it concerned the new, smaller style '3593A. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

Hi SlavaB,

Yup. The style sold at PepBoys comes in a cylindrical box and is a little smaller as seen below...

I got lucky. All five were in boxes.

Oh, all 10 filters I've got are the newer ones with "20" text stamped
Didn't realized at first yours has 3593 imprinted
The filter here https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/5050123/champion-cos-3593a-new-cut-open is the newer one then

Humm, shows tested per ISO 4548-12, but no mention of the micron size at 99% efficiency. That's a new twist.

These Champion oil filters are ninety nine percent at 20 microns... Don't know why they did not put this on the boxes... However the information is available to be found online.
