Original MANN-FILTER Oil filter W 940/27 – For Passenger Cars and Utility Vehicles

MANN‑FILTER Oil Filter W 940/27

The MANN‑FILTER Oil Filter W 940/27 is a premium, original engine oil filter designed for a wide range of passenger cars and utility vehicles. It delivers superior protection against contaminants while maintaining optimal oil flow, ensuring the longevity and performance of your engine.

Key Design Features

• High‑Efficiency Filtration: The filter employs a multi‑layer media system that captures particles as small as 0.5 µm, preventing wear on bearings, pistons, and camshafts.
• Anti‑Return Valve: A built‑in valve prevents oil from flowing back into the engine when pressure drops, protecting the filter media from contamination and extending its service life.
• Robust Construction: Made with a durable polypropylene housing that resists corrosion and high temperatures up to 200 °C.
• Standard Threading: Fits standard 3/4‑inch, 16 UNF threads (1.5 mm pitch) used in most modern vehicles.
• Easy Installation: Spin‑on design requires no special tools; simply tighten until the filter is snug against the housing.

Compatibility and Vehicle Coverage

The W 940/27 is engineered to fit a broad spectrum of models, including but not limited to:

• Nissan Patrol (Hardtop & Vanette)
• Aston Martin Lagonda V8, Virage, and other high‑performance variants
• TVR sports cars (350, 420, 390, 450 models)
• Various utility vehicles such as the Nissan Eco‑T and ATLEON series
• Other passenger cars that use a 3/4‑inch, 16 UNF oil filter thread

Because of its universal thread size and robust design, the filter is also suitable for aftermarket applications where OEM specifications match.

Performance Benefits

• Engine Protection: By trapping contaminants before they reach critical engine components, the filter reduces wear and extends service intervals.
• Consistent Oil Flow: The anti‑return valve ensures steady oil pressure, preventing dips that could compromise lubrication during idling or low‑speed operation.
• Reduced Maintenance Costs: Longer filter life means fewer replacements and less downtime for vehicle owners.
• Improved Fuel Efficiency: A clean engine runs more efficiently; the filter’s design minimizes resistance to oil flow, contributing to better fuel economy.

Installation Guide

1. Locate the existing oil filter on your vehicle. Refer to the owner’s manual for exact positioning.
2. Use a suitable wrench or socket to loosen and remove the old filter. Be prepared for residual oil; keep a rag handy.
3. Inspect the mounting surface for damage or debris. Clean if necessary.
4. Apply a thin layer of fresh engine oil to the gasket on the new filter’s base to ensure an airtight seal.
5. Insert the MANN‑FILTER W 940/27 and tighten by hand until snug, then give an additional half turn with the wrench. Avoid overtightening which can damage the gasket.
6. Start the engine and check for leaks around the filter area. If any oil drips, shut off the engine and retighten slightly.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace the filter at every scheduled oil change or sooner if you drive in dusty or harsh conditions.
• Avoid using incompatible filters; mismatched thread sizes can lead to leaks and engine damage.
• Store unused filters in a dry, cool place to preserve gasket integrity.
