I don't know about everyone else, but I hate it everytime I go to change my oil and am reminded of how small my oil filter is. How can that thing do the job that the 2.2lt requires? So, I found one that matched the thread pattern and diamater and just put it on my car. It's a PureONE PL14477. It's only about a half and inch longer, but it's enough to make me happy. I'll try to find out what car comes with that.

Did you notice ANY change it time before oil pressure stabilizes with the larger filter - i.e. did the oil light stay on any longer upon startup with the larger filter? |
