Who's using them?

Any issues? What kind of mileage have you been running?

Don't want to start a controversy or flame war. Just a simple question.

Nissan has used many sizes in past. The current hand grenade is ok but I can fit my Xterra filter on the Z and Murano. It has all same dimensions but about 1/2" taller.

I use WIX xp filters and I noticed that the one for the Xterra has a Silicone anti-drain back valve while the smaller one for the Z has a black, which usually denotes a rubber/nitrile material. I'd prefer the silicone. Both same price.

On the WIX site, both filters have same bypass specs except they give a range for the larger at 8-11 psi vs just opening at 8 psi for smaller.

Same goes for the Mobil1 filters. M1-108 (short) M1-110 taller. Both same mounting size.

Thanks
