Oil Filter Small
#11
x2 on what Lorrel said. There has been some engine knocking on startup with some aftermarket filters but not all. Seems bypass in filter is the culprit and some are different enough to be slow getting oil pressure up during startup.

x2 for 18K miles. If someone were to buy my JK used and go buy the specified part, they'd probably post on JK-Forum that their filter was too small: The Mobil 1 filter is quite a bit larger than the OEM Mopar filter (which measure 2.9" diameter x 3.5" long). If there's a smaller filter on the market, it must be for a moped! LOL.
