I recently had an opportunity to view a Subaru (the blue not the black) filter that had been cut in half. I couldn’t believe what I saw!

IIRC, the FB motor used on the 2013's is the same way. Not that it's relevant, but my Hyundai also uses a cartridge filter.

No, it's a regular, spin-on type filter, except that it's mounted on top of the engine facing (screwed) down, instead of underneath facing up.
