What about it is incorrect?
I am just saying that we all know what works, but some dealers with incorrectly trained service technicians may give additional hassle for no legitimate reason.
At the end of the day, if you ran a Toyota filter on your Subaru, no one cares as long as it meets the required specs (which, I might add, are not published for us to reference). But the average tech might just say "we can't touch your car because you have a non-OEM filter" which is complete crap.
