WIX WL10414 vs LUBER-FINER PH2903: Oil Filter Compatibility

Compare WIX WL10414 and LUBER-FINER PH2903 oil filters by compatibility, dimensions, thread size, gasket fit, bypass valve, anti-drainback valve status, and match confidence. Use this comparison as a fitment review, not as an automatic substitution guarantee. Both use a M20x1.5 thread.

Quick verdict

COMPATIBLEMatch score: 87

Closest known dimensional difference: height -18.6 mm. Verify application-specific requirements before substituting.

  • Thread size is the first hard-fit check for any comparison of spin-on filters.
  • Gasket OD and gasket ID are the most important seal-related dimensions.
  • Height differences can matter for clearance even when thread and gasket fit appear close.
  • Bypass and anti-drainback differences may be important, depending on the application.
