Again, I suspected you would be a baby and you didn't disappoint! Hey did you see the end caps are not paper or did you not even read their response? Special polymer designed to seal and outperform normal plastic, see what you can learn when your mind isn't closed? But hay you run with NAPA know how, they know German! AND Mustang connecting rod specs, helofa basketball they printed too.

I do know what an inane and meaningless “let’s start a pissing contest” response from some one with no real experience in the subject, no objective data, and no meaningful knowledge other than the regurgitated commercial drivel provided by a manufacturer with a commercial interest to protect looks like……………………….

Like your mind, the subject is now closed.

No objective data, you mean supplied by the manufacturer and developer of the technology? You mean Mahle, the people who showed your contention that the filter ends are paper to be a manifestation in your own mind that you passed on as facts? Go put an addition on the house for your ego. Like you I'm done now do as you wish with your car, I'm super glad I didn't have to interface with you in business as I am sure you feel the same about me. Let's just quietly think each other idiots and let the boys go back to their blog.

I am absolutely STUNNED that a manufacturer would send an email response, and a lengthy, well-written one at that.

I called the idiots at Amex not less than 10 times to repeat the same problem. And the kicker, the guy on the phone at Verizon tried arguing with me that it wasn't their fault that they sent one defective after another for 10 months. Virtually every other big company I deal with have either folks answering the phone who can barely speak the language of the customer or have absolutely no interest in fixing a damn thing.

Good job MAHLE.

Probably a canned response from the marketing department because of the number of inquiries’ they have gotten on the subject……………

but what do you have to say about this argument?

"The material is superior to a plastic and even an elastomer (rubber) seal, due to the fact that it can compensate the thermal expansion and contraction of the filter module components during different operating phases such as cold start, warm-up, cool down.."

If it is so damned good, why does it tear around the center opening? I have never seen a Wix do that. And it does not address the glue line delamination failures where the media is bonded to the end cap, which is an even more common failure point.
