Review on MAHLE Original LX 343 Filter by Jimmy Hargrove

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I suspect its purpose is to catch coarse dirt that gets in there before it clogs the thinner paper filter

The image is not entirely representative, this filter has a white, thick, flat layer (3/8 inch - coarser Stack filter 1/2" fiberglass on top. I suspect it should catch the coarse dirt that gets in there before the finer paper filter gets clogged. I had the same filter last year and replaced it after over 8000 miles, haven't notice any performance issues.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
