The next time I change the oil for 2024, I will photograph the filter holder and outline the 5 seals on mine, which is an OEM to my SRT6. The Mann and OEM MB filters have/had 5 seals. Why would a supplier provide an additional seal if only 4 are required, to complete the filter change?
Back to you at a later date....
