OK so I'm looking online for my filter and it dawned on me...if we're supposed to purge the system over and over again for a month or so till it's nice and clean..what about the filter? Shouldn't it also be changed frequently until the fluid is clear?
My other question is what on earth is this that O'Reilly is selling?

It looks completely different from the ones Peach or AutoHausAZ are selling and it's a LOT more expensive.

Auto Zone has something completely different too! Geez.

Just wondering how many filters I need to order.
