Done a quick investigashun with my old Bosch filter I had fitted last oil change..

The syrup has been draining from its pleats for a good 2 weeks, the paper bosch use is really rather strong and still very stiff even after 5000 hard miles...

My best blunt stanley knife was tested to the max here. :rolleyes::D

What I'm looking for is metallic fragments and sludge/crap.

The pleats are put in the vice and squished to remove excess oil

BTW 10w60 with lucas is akin to maple syrup, no wonder it had a cam follower rattle when cold, my poor old oil pump :confused:

Upon closer inspection there is nothing untoward contained within the filter...

I have never don't it, but I was just thinking, if you spray it with a wheel cleaner and there is metal in it, it will go move, won't tell you how much, but it will show if there is??

Might do..
It's become a habit after the M62 I did had an oil pressure issue and lunched its main bearings, the filter was full of chunks ;)
 
Gonna make Bix teach me how to fit my battery this afternoon and check out the refurb process for my alloys now they're off. And remind him to put air in his tyres for the 50th time.
Happy hump day all!
