FAQs

What are the dimensions of the OX556D?

The filter has a height of 144mm, an outer diameter of 92mm, and an inner diameter of 34mm.

Does this filter come with a new gasket?

Yes, the Mahle OX556D includes the necessary gasket/seal for installation.

Is this a spin-on filter?

No, this is an ECO-style filter insert designed to be placed inside a reusable filter housing.

How often should I change this filter?

You should follow the maintenance schedule provided in your vehicle owner's manual, typically coinciding with your oil change interval.

Why is it called an ECO filter?

It is referred to as an ECO filter because it uses a paper-based element without metal end caps, making it easier to recycle and reducing overall material waste.

Troubleshooting

Oil leaking from the filter housing after installation

Verify that the new gasket was installed in the correct groove and is not pinched or twisted. Ensure the housing cap is tightened to the correct torque.

Filter feels loose in the housing

Confirm that the old filter insert was fully removed and that the center stem of the housing is clear of debris before seating the new filter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the OX556D, start by draining the engine oil and removing the oil filter housing cap. Remove the old insert and the old rubber gasket from the cap. Clean the housing thoroughly with a lint-free cloth, taking care not to leave any debris inside. Install the new O-ring provided with the filter, lightly coating it with fresh engine oil. Slide the new OX556D filter onto the center stem until it clicks into place. Tighten the filter housing to the manufacturer's specified torque rating to prevent cracking the plastic cap. Always verify your vehicle's specific compatibility before purchase, as the physical dimensions of 144mm height and 92mm outer diameter are precise.
