A filter uses a reversible element guide. The filter includes a housing that provides a cavity. A filter element assembly is arranged in the cavity and includes an end cap supporting the filter media. An element guide is arranged between the end cap and the housing. The element guide includes a first set of tabs engaging the end cap and a second set of tabs engaging the housing. The number of tabs in each set are equal to one another so that they will exert the same biasing force when installed in either orientation. The tabs extend awa y from a base at a height that is the same on each side of the base.
