Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Enhance Your Engine's Performance with the Derale 25750 Remote Filter Mount Kit by Aaron Bannister

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Leaks: Fan and parts

Looked good but had a small leak from the first minute. The transmission oil filter is installed in the engine compartment. I thought the filter was defective so I measured the filter mount and gasket dimensions inside and out and confirmed the correct Fram filter size. Bought a Mobile 1 with the same configuration and it's leaking too. You can see liquid on the edge of the filter and drips under the filter. And yes, I put both on according to the filter's instructions. Removed to check machine operation for manufacturing defects. Very annoying. Yesterday I removed the filter bracket and guess what, the sealing surface isn't even machined. It had holes in it and it wasn't even flat. I was so angry. I started hemming it before I even thought about taking a picture. You can see how uneven the surface is. This was followed by 200, 400 and 600 grit sanding blocks. It still seeps, but very little. GARBAGE.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic
