• High Flow Capacity: The filter’s internal geometry allows for a low pressure drop, preserving engine performance and fuel efficiency.
• Durable Construction: Made from high‑quality polypropylene housing with reinforced sealing rings to resist cracking and maintain integrity under extreme temperatures.
• OEM Compatibility: Certified to fit the original oil filter location in both the A‑Class (W169) and B‑Class (W245), providing a seamless replacement experience.
• Easy Installation: Features a standard threaded design with a built‑in gasket, eliminating the need for additional seals or adapters.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Warm the engine to normal operating temperature. This reduces oil viscosity and eases filter removal.
2. Drain Oil (Optional): If you prefer a full oil change, drain the existing oil before removing the old filter.
3. Remove Old Filter: Use an oil filter wrench to loosen the original filter. Allow any residual oil to drip into the drain pan.
4. Inspect Housing: Check the filter housing for cracks or damage. Replace if necessary.
5. Install New Filter: Align the gasket and insert the VAICO V30-1325. Hand‑tighten until snug, then give an additional 1/4 turn with the wrench to ensure a proper seal.
6. Add Oil (If Drained): Refill the engine with the manufacturer’s recommended oil type and quantity.
7. Check for Leaks: Start the engine and inspect the filter area for any signs of leakage. Tighten slightly if needed.

Performance Benefits

• Extended Engine Life: By trapping microscopic debris, the filter protects bearings, pistons, and camshafts from premature wear.
• Improved Fuel Economy: Low pressure drop means less energy is required to pump oil through the system, translating into marginal fuel savings.
• Consistent Oil Quality: Maintains optimal viscosity and prevents sludge buildup, ensuring reliable engine operation across all driving conditions.
