Original MANN‑FILTER Oil Filter WK 12 004 – For Passenger Cars

The Original MANN‑FILTER Oil Filter WK 12 004 is a high‑performance component engineered to protect the engine of modern passenger vehicles. Designed with precision and built for durability, this filter delivers superior filtration while maintaining optimal oil flow.

Key Design Features

• Advanced Filtration Media: Utilises a multi‑layered synthetic fiber core that captures particles as small as 0.5 µm, ensuring clean oil and extending engine life.
• Optimised Flow Resistance: Engineered to minimise pressure drop, allowing the engine to operate at peak efficiency without compromising filtration.
• Robust Construction: The filter housing is made from high‑strength plastic with reinforced seams, providing resistance to vibration and temperature extremes.
• Easy Installation: Features a standard threaded design compatible with most passenger car engines, enabling quick and tool‑free replacement.

Compatibility Overview

The WK 12 004 filter is specifically tailored for a range of passenger cars, including models from the PSA group such as Citroën C‑Crosser, Peugeot 4007, and other related vehicles. Its dimensions (outer diameter 100 mm, height 137 mm) match the original equipment specifications for these engines.

Performance Benefits

• Engine Protection: By trapping contaminants, the filter prevents wear on bearings and pistons, reducing maintenance costs.
• Fuel Efficiency: Maintains optimal oil viscosity and flow, contributing to better fuel economy.
• Longevity: The durable media and housing extend the interval between oil changes, offering convenience for drivers.
• Environmental Impact: Cleaner oil reduces emissions and supports compliance with stringent environmental regulations.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Ensure the engine is cool and disconnect the battery to prevent accidental starts.
2. Drain Old Oil: Place a drain pan beneath the oil filter housing and remove the old filter, allowing residual oil to flow out.
3. Prepare New Filter: Lightly oil the rubber gasket of the WK 12 004 to aid sealing.
4. Mount Filter: Screw the new filter onto the housing clockwise until snug, then give an additional 1/4 turn.
5. Re‑install Drain Plug: Tighten the drain plug securely.
6. Refill Oil: Add fresh engine oil to the recommended level.
7. Check for Leaks: Start the engine and inspect the filter area for any signs of leakage.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace the filter at every oil change or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Inspect the filter housing for cracks or damage before installation.
• Store unused filters in a dry, cool place to preserve media integrity.
