When the car is cranked it pushes the filter loose and oil leaks out what is going on?

It is blowing the o ring out. Can anybody tell me what is happening?When the car is cranked it pushes the filter loose and oil leaks out what is going on?
relief valve is bad. Not too common on newer cars I have seen a lot of chevy engines mostly the 350 in a truck that had problems with this. But those were mostly in the eighties. The filter should also looked puffed out if this is the cause. Look at the filter and see if it is puffed out. And get a pressure check done.When the car is cranked it pushes the filter loose and oil leaks out what is going on?
oil filter is loose /damaged, or oil rings r stuffed,causing compression in crankcase,not cylinders,this is bad,even worse if it blows the dipstick out,see a mech, engine may need rings/replaced,cheers
usually the simple solution is best. I would Check thatthe filter is tight. If it is, I would take it off and remove the Gasket from the last oil filter that got stuck tot he mating surface. That happens a lot. The old gasket will stick there when you take off the oil filter then you put the new on on top of it and you cannot get a good seal with two of those rubber gaskets. If that isn't your issue, the filter might be faulty. That does happen sometimes.
In addition to the above suggestions, check this too: If it only started happening after a oil/filter change. check to make sure there is not an old oil filter gastket that did not get removed with the old filter. it could still be stuck on to the car, and overlapped with the new filter gasket. This would cause a poor seal between the new filter and the mating surface.
SOunds like a pressure relief valve is broken in the oil pump.
With about 200 O-Rings and half a dozen filters on a car, which one is getting blown?
excessive oil pressure. most likely due to a stuck pressure relief valve in the oil pump
or you put too much oil in.. stop doing that before you blow a gasket and turn your engine into a siv
