Well as they say it also depends on the engine. In this case the hemi and in the case of the Toyota I referenced they are “dirty” engines so they plug the filter. Not had any issues on this car and never had any in my VW before which is actually surprising to me cause the VW oil always looked like crap and I’d think a Toyota would be cleaner but I guess looks aren’t everything. Cars old by now (2009) and as I said in the case of the Toyota they removed it as a filter to use from the application guide and I’d assume they’ve done the same for the hemi and I’ll assume they’d do so for ours if it has issues. They’re pretty good about their testing.
