FAQs

How often should I replace this oil filter?

It is recommended to replace the oil filter according to your vehicle manufacturer's maintenance schedule, typically with every oil change. This is usually between 5,000 and 10,000 miles, depending on driving conditions.

What does the filter insert type mean?

A 'filter insert type' means the filter media and its housing are a single unit that replaces the entire old filter element. This is common in many modern engine designs.

Is this filter suitable for all Mitsubishi Fuso models?

This filter (part number 108861) is compatible with various Mitsubishi Fuso models. However, you must verify compatibility with your specific vehicle year and model before purchase.

Does it come with instructions?

While detailed instructions are not always included with the part itself, this guide provides comprehensive installation steps. Always refer to your vehicle's service manual for model-specific procedures.

What is the significance of the included gasket/seal?

The gasket or seal is crucial for creating a tight, leak-free seal between the oil filter and the engine's oil filter housing. It ensures that oil is filtered correctly and does not escape the system.

Can I use this filter if my vehicle is not a Mitsubishi Fuso?

This febi bilstein oil filter is specifically designed and listed as compatible with certain Mitsubishi Fuso models. Using it on an incompatible vehicle may lead to improper fit, leaks, or engine damage.

Oil leak after installation

Ensure the old gasket was fully removed, the new gasket was properly lubricated and seated, and the filter is tightened correctly. Re-check for leaks after running the engine.

Filter does not fit properly

Verify that the part number 108861 is indeed the correct filter for your specific Mitsubishi Fuso model. Double-check compatibility specifications.
