That image helps a lot. This is my sons car so I do not always do the oil changes (I have a 9-5 aero & 9-7x. It appears that the edge has partially worn away on one side for the proper slot to put the new O-Ring, so it is pushing out one side of the housing & pulling the whole O-Ring up & out as I thighten it. Sometimes the whole O-rig sticks out & sometimes it is partial. Time to find a new filter housing / cap. I went out and got a new filter with a red O-Ring. That made it a lot easier to identify the issue. Sounds like it got threaded in wrong at some point. Thanks for the help - thought I was going senile.
