Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this filter, first ensure the engine has cooled to prevent oil burns. Locate the oil filter housing, unscrew the cap using the appropriate wrench, and remove the old filter insert. Always replace the O-ring seal provided with the filter to prevent leaks; ensure it is seated correctly in the groove of the cap. Clean the housing area of any residual debris before inserting the new HENGST FILTER.
Compatibility includes select models from:
- Mercedes-Benz

Always verify your specific engine code and model year before installation. Use a torque wrench to tighten the filter cap according to manufacturer specifications to avoid damaging the plastic housing.
