Hmmmm... thanks for the heads up.

Was this with the cartridge oil filter, and, if so - do you know if it is specific to the cartridge filter design?

I've got an '09 -3 and a '10 -5 - both have the spin on oil filter redesign. I'm hoping that the switch to the spin on filter took care of this.


Beyond this - I do love both vehicles - especially the 5. A mini van in which I did more than 30 mpg round trip to Cleveland this weekend.

However - the failure of a $0.07 seal causing the necessary replacement of a $400 part - very poor design.
