			Quick question I've been reading about r53 oil filter housings Apparently older r53 might of had the plastic Cage and spring setup.... However I don't remember my 2003 r53 having that. Do you have any insight on this ? It seems to apply to regular mini coopers, but I keep reading so many conflicting info for the mcs __________________ This post was auto-generated based upon a question asked on our tech article page here: | ||

			Models before 7/2004 had the metal housing with the plastic cage. Models after 7/2004 has the metal housing without the plastic cage. An updated filter was introduced with the later models, replacing the early filters without an internal plastic support.  - Nick | ||
