Time for a new tech then. Oil filter debris is a very real tell tale sign of potential trouble. Of course it depends on how much debris there is, and what type of debris it is. I would not trust any mechanic who told me that filter bebris is not significant. It would make me wonder whether he has ignored it in apst oil changes.
