So, job successfully completed with one exception (travel this week so couldn't get to it till today).

The new oil filter (from Porsche) looks different from the one I replaced (S. Korean). I have included a picture however it looks like the old one had a spring enabled bypass filter on it. Anyone know why this might be? Nervous that my engine requires a different type of filter cartridge than what was standard on a 996. My engine was replace in 2006 under warranty so upgraded engine with non-replaceable IMS bearing.

Any thoughts on this?
