(1) What Kodak (a failing company) is using is irrelevant to what is going on in your car, but I would be willing to wager that what ever brand of cartridge filters they are using are not as poorly made as the OEM Mahle filters in your car…...

(2) Porsche is also the architects of the IMS, RMS, D-chunking, slipped sleeves, etc., etc.; not all their choices are good ones..........

(3) Your warranty only requires that you change the filter, not the brand.

(4) Suggest you obtain a copy of the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act (P.L. 93-637), a United States federal law, which states that before an OEM can deny warranty coverage, they have to conclusively prove that the aftermarket component caused your engine failure.
