• Low Pressure Drop: Designed to maintain a minimal pressure differential, the filter ensures that fuel flow remains steady, reducing engine load and improving fuel economy.
• OEM Compatibility: The WK 730/1 matches the original equipment specifications for a wide range of Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda, and other VAG group vehicles, guaranteeing a perfect fit.
• Easy Installation: The filter’s standard 75 mm outer diameter and 174 mm height allow for straightforward replacement without the need for special tools.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Disconnect the vehicle’s battery and relieve fuel system pressure according to manufacturer guidelines.
2. Locate the Filter: The WK 730/1 is typically positioned along the fuel line between the fuel tank and the engine.
3. Remove Old Filter: Use a suitable wrench to loosen the filter housing clamps. Carefully detach the old filter, allowing any residual fuel to drain into a container.
