Have had mine since 2009.
No problems except one. A few years ago I had the car into an indy shop to do some other work on it. While they had it, it dawned on me that she was due for an oil change. I figured they had the car on a lift, why not. Called and asked them to do an oil/filter change for me.
Next time I went to change my oil, when I went to unscrew the filter I ended up with both the filter AND the adapter firmly attached. That had never happened to me before. I worked on it for a while and had no luck. The guy at the shop seemed to have cranked on it (via the filter??) with some sort of breaker bar. I didn't have any ideas or anyone around to help, so I took it to an Advance Auto where one of the guys working there and I, using a heavy duty vice and I don't even remember what else got the two apart after several minutes of effort. The filter looked like someone had driven a tank over it.
Put it back on (torqueing to the proper level) and haven't had that (or any other) problem with it since.
