GT4 oil filter same as 991?
Hi,
I was all set to do my first oil service on the GT4 today and it dawned on me that the oil filter between the GT4 and 991S may be different. I have a few filters for my 991 and thought it would be the same since it's the same engine. With the GT4's filter in a housing under the car, it popped in my head that it may be different.
I have the o-ring and crush washer separate from the filter kit so I only have filter cartridges with the part number 94810722200. Google image search seems to find inconsistency as some images show a really tall filter for the GT4 and some show a short one that looks like my 991 filter.
Can anyone confirm?

Price is different, so I think they are different:

I ended up going to the dealership this morning to get the right filter. Definitely different. The GT4's filter is taller and skinnier while the 991's filter was shorter and had a larger diameter.
Was hoping both were to same so I can just worry about ordering 1 part for spares.
