A dry paper filter but a pod none the less...the oil damage theory maybe another valid cause but in this case it's probably due to the extra vibration of the pod.

Would be interesting to know if this was the original AFM. My original was replaced under warranty and as far as I know the replacement is still going strong. This was given to Jester and I wonder if it's survived? If it has it supports my idea of the originals having a bad batch. My second AFM ran for about 5 years with an oiled filter with no problems before it was retired.
