Suggestion

I purchased it to replace the original canister filter because the valve at the bottom of the canister can get stuck open and allow unfiltered oil to circulate.

Note that if you chance vehicles and bother vehicles use the same basic canister size but with different threads, you can just switch the threaded bushings to use the filter on your new vehicle.»

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Has anyone got experience or views on the high flow spin on oil filter adapter ? https://www.design911.co.uk/fu/prod13996/High-Flow-Oil-Filter-Spin-on-Adapter-Porsche-996---986-Boxster---987-Boxster---987C-Cayman---997---955-Cayenne-S-V8-and-955-Cayenne-Turbo/

POST 2Original post

Looks to be identical to the spin on oil filter adapter made by LN. I have one, I like it. I purchased it to replace the original canister filter because the valve at the bottom of the canister can get stuck open and allow unfiltered oil to circulate.

POST 3Original post

Quotes source post: 599854

My view would be that $240 is highway ****************ing robbery.

POST 4Original post

Quotes source post: 599855

The adapter in the OP link is the LNE adaptor. That site is overcharging.

POST 5Original post

I have one, they are expensive, but with track use 30% of my driving it makes it very easy to pull the filter seperate it and look at the screens. It also has a higher flow rate than paper. 5 track weekends a year. Oil change after each one and winter storage. filter start to eek into your budget. Haven't bought a filter in 3 years. In London not sure whats available but Ebay has them for about $130 to $150 US.

POST 6Original post

Quotes source post: 599958

What? This is about the LNE spin on adapter, not reusable filter. BTW, I have both, too. It is nice to be able to just unscrew the filter and have a look.

POST 7Original post

Quotes source post: 599982

I’m not familiar with a reusable filter. How does that work? I have the spin on adapter.

POST 8Original post

Quotes source post: 599993

This is the one I have: http://professional-products.com/professional-products-powerfilter-oil-filters-10867 I have the 45 and 25 micron stainless steel mesh filters, but only run the 45. The 25 would require more cleaning and the general consensus is that 45 is good for street use. It also has a built in neodymium magnet.

POST 9Original post

Looks pretty interesting but wow, is this english?: «The Powerflow Oil Filter lineup consists of four basic filter canister sizes with different threaded nushings to make up out current twelve different filters. Note that if you chance vehicles and bother vehicles use the same basic canister size but with different threads, you can just switch the threaded bushings to use the filter on your new vehicle.» So the part that you linked (10870) is the right one for our cars with the LN spin-on adapter?

POST 10Original post

I’ll have to look for my paperwork. I bought the filter and LN adapter from a member for $125, so no experience with the site or manufacturer.

POST 11Original post

I just checked. The correct filter is 10867 (the one I linked above). .

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
