Welcome! Sometimes you get a bad one, and sadly it seems like more often then good with the EcoDiesel. But we're glad to have you here.. metal shavings in the oil filter doesn't sound good. Report back what your next steps are ?
Parts yard and get a pull out seems to the route most take here lately. Most are disgusted and sell after that, as I don't blame them honestly. Keep us updated on the path you take!
