[QUOTE="zaffo oxnard, post: 950120, member: 53598"] Uhhhh... A filter hanging straight down is not the issue. When the engine rocks on the mounts, a long filter swings in an arc that might contact the frame or some other fixed piece of metal. The simple answer that the filter "fits" when the car is rest is what gets you into trouble. The ADBV is how a "will fit" filter with the same threads and mounting face gets you into trouble too. 820S Stick with it. You will gain nothing with the wrong filter. [/QUOTE]
