Yes, the filter can be clogged. It should be changed roughly every 24000km…or once a year.

Aftermarket crank pulley ques?
ok, i hear even the best aftermarket crank pulleys can still cause long term excessive wear to the crank bearings cuz of balancing and the harmonic balance and all that, well say i got a unorthadox racing crank pulley, a good brand and took it to a machine shop and had it checked and balanced and all that, would it be good as gold then?
Damn, I should probably change my filter. 163k and I dont know if shes been changed once! To the store.

Are you sure it’s neccessary to change it once a year? 24K even seems a little soon also. The dealerships change it at about 72K I believe.
