Five sided w123 300D oil filter!!! Why???
After changing the oil on my '79 300D, I observed the
old Hengst oil filter had undergone a transformation of shape!! Normally the filter is cylindrical in shape. This one's top half, the screen mesh half, had five flat sides. Apparently the filter had undergone some type of extreme vacuum like force which pulled in the sides to almost flat sides. Five sides. (pentahedron?) Any ideas on how this happened? approx. 3500 miles on the filter. Thanks!!
