They do look good, so many oil filters I have taken apart to show badly deformed pleats. Uneven pleats make oil flow take the wider path than narrow, that's why some filters tear easily. Thanks for the comment.
Nobody pays $20 for a premium oil filter and unless they're stupid. You can buy them all day long at your Napa auto parts store for $14.99, and if you buy it online, you can get it for $12.99.
That's news to me. I was just at my Napa auto parts store two days ago getting a premium filter for my truck, and they never said a word about it, this is their top selling oil filter, I think somebody was blowing smoke up your ass.
Those pleats expand evenly when under pressure from oil flow

No oil filter brand stands up to PUROLATOR!!! Period.
Yes that may be so, Purolator is made by Mann +Hummel same as Wix and Napa platinum. Purolator is a great filter.
Guess what, your filter is made by the same company, lol
@alcameron6071 yes it is.
I especially like when the purolator media tears
@@stevenbettez2017it’s happened like 3 times so yeah, something to keep an eye 👁️ on

Try living in Canada where our oil filters are way overpriced.
And unless you can’t piece a sentence together 😂
Thanks, I have been using the 47055 on my 2017 Outback for years.
These filters are put together pretty good.
The issue with these platinum and xp filters, they look great but filter like crap.
I did like those filters at one time but now they are Mann+Hammel and not well made anymore. So disappointed in Wix.
@@crazybillsgarage yup Mann and Hummel are shit
@stevenbettez2017 not great.
What's the micron rating?
Micron rating is 21, where the Amsoil has a rating of 20, so amsoil is slightly better at Filtration. Thanks .
@@crazybillsgarageAnd the Napa has slightly better flow,rate.
That is to say, less restrictive.
@limeanrepid5751 thank for the information.
Sorry to tell everybody but Napa is doing away with the Platinum filter
Well that's not good news.🫣

They're doing/done away with the silver, not the platinum....
@fomoco173 the silver is gone, the platinum is still being built.
