I was in a pinch for an oil filter so stopped by my local indie mechanic that I frequent from time to time. I purchased a Meyle filter for $6, "Volvo OEM" I was told.
I'd had this filter installed for ~2,000 miles and at every start up the oil light would stay on for 2 full seconds.
Now back in stock in my basement, I replaced it with a MANN filter (~500 miles ago) and no more oil light staying on at startup. It appears the stories are true that the MANN filter has the bests drain back valve design.
