Hi there!

If the oil is pressure builds up in like a second or two it is fine! On next oil change try an OEM or a more expensive oil filter. Because in the oil filter there should be a valve. Some cheaper oil filters don’t have a proper valve or its not existent. But as long as the pressure builds up fast it should be fine!

Hope this helps! Let me know if the pressure is not building up fast.
