- Align the new MAHLE KC 6 filter with the flange and screw clockwise until snug, ensuring no cross‑threading.
- Reconnect the fuel line and restore system pressure. Check for leaks around the mounting area.
- Verify engine operation and monitor for any abnormal noise or performance issues.
Maintenance & Replacement Guidelines
- Perform a visual inspection of the filter housing during routine maintenance checks.
- Replace the filter at intervals recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, typically every 20,000–30,000 km or annually, whichever comes first.
- Avoid using aftermarket filters that do not meet MAHLE’s stringent specifications to prevent compromising fuel system integrity.
