What you call 'dirt' is part of the cotton as it comes off the plant.. In order to separate it out you would also have to separate the cotton fibers which would reduce their density and ability to filter. None of it can get into your oil system and all of it works to filter your oil.
You're freaking out about nothing. Mann is still the best filter you can use.

yes, the cotton is the "bypass" section... it is more effective than the paper is.

So the filters without the bypass cotton section like the Wix (100% pleated?) is less effective?

The larger top section of the filter which is filled with cotton is the primary filtration, or "bypass"... the FSM refers to this as "finely filtered oil" which goes back to the oil pan. The lower pleated section of the filter is the "full-flow" section, this goes out to the main oil gallery in the engine block. See FSM Group 18 for details.

I'm not sure people have a good understanding of how the MB bypass filter works. Maybe that's the real problem. Do we really need 2 active threads on this subject?
