Oil cleaner ??

Post by Holydiver »

As it was nice yesterday I did an oil change, but my van is fitted with an oil cleaner, does anyone know where I can get a new filter for it?? not even sure that this is a VW item.

It's a diesel engine

it's the chome item in the photo.

Cheers

Your best bet would be to remove the guts of the thing and go to your local motor factors and try to match it up with something similar, and when you do make a note of it for next time.

Is it a simple filter or is it a cetrifuge? If so you just need to scrap the carbon build up out of it. Industrial engines have them fitted and they remove an amazing amount of carbon.
