Bah, I forgot that the German stuff has the standalone paper thing that goes into the (usually plastic and easy to damage) canister. My TT and R32 both had the same... I blame mental overload from work.

Number of pleats the same? Maybe higher temperature glue in use?



I just find it very hard to believe they'd go to the trouble of making two different part numbers solely to overcharge ///M owners.

I'm an IT guy by trade and tech nerd by choice.
I like HPDEs, parts of US Hwy 129, NC 28, and the Cherohala Skyway.
I'm also a fan of aural pleasure.
