Hi lcc014:

What I meant to convey in my prior posting was that the filter, when "cleaned" actually has worse filtration properties than when dirty, as long as it hasn't reached its useful life where it becomes clogged and the pressure drop because critical.

Ok,

I will stick with the manufacture replacement period. I came across the www.bavauto.com which recommend to replace the micro filter every 10k miles. That's why I post this question.

Thanks,
