Honestly, no offense but says who? Has someone verified the pressure differential across the filters are identical? Is the particulate filtration identical? Any time I see bigger is better, as an engineer, I stop.This is the OEM filter everyone should be using. The 65FOE and 9E01A are identical filters other than the 9E is longer with a larger capacity, and more filter media.
So very clearly at least someone has looked at this. I think it’s a terrible idea to use a filter just because it’s bigger when the flow properties are different. Call me crazy.Trying to figure out which filter based on RELIEF VALVE setpoint in the filter:
15208-65F1B (made in Japan by Mahle) : 250 kpa / 36 PSI
15208-65FOE: 98 kpa / 14.2 PSI
15208-9E01A: unknown. My google-fu is weak
Mobil 1 M1-108A: 103 kpa / 15 PSI
Mobil 1 M1-110: 103 kpa / 15 PSI
Per Z1 Motorsports:
*ATTENTION*
If you are using a heavier oil weight than recommended in your FSM, we recommend using the 65F0E filter to allow the heavier oil to flow properly.![]()
I use the longer filter on my Murano, checks outCorrect vs the truck filter people are using.

I have a 3.5L Murano and the tall filter is not the correct filter for that car either. To each his own, but the tall truck filters the dealer sold me are being returned.I use the longer filter on my Murano, checks out

No experience at all. They’re out of spec so I wouldn’t try it.Didnt know GTR is identified as a truck
The 15208-9E01A is used on GTRs. A few of us use this filter and havent seen any issues with it
What -neg experience have you seen or been involved with using the "truck" filter?
How do you know which is the correct filter?I have a 3.5L Murano and the tall filter is not the correct filter for that car either. To each his own, but the tall truck filters the dealer sold me are being returned.
