For the past 3 or 4 oil changes the fleetguard filter I have been using is leaking a little from the gasket/seal. When I took it off and put on another filter for a test (mopar) there was no leak. I tried the fleetguard again and it leaked, then I put a (wix) on and no leak. Finally I'm sticking with mopar.

I know fleetguard has the best filtering method, but I'm not sure how many of you actually jump up onto the bumper and use a flashlight to check for leaks around the seal.

I don't mean right after the oil is changed because it starts after 1 or 2 high speed drives on the highway.

I'm not putting down fleetguard. However, I am warning you all to inspect the top of the filter where the seel is for leaks. I'm actually dissapointed since I want to use fleetguard.


Now I have a mopar on it and it fits perfect. I'm just warning all of you. Even the wix I used didn't leak at all, and I don't like to use wix.
