tommy1340millar Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I see that none of the replacement fuel filters now come with the small o-ring seal. I've had a few problems as current car came with ill-fitting item. it's nominal 19mm, but does anyone have dimensions, or cross-section size, please? 3006 1.8 tdci KKDA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke4efc Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Do you mean the O-Ring that comes with this fuel filter here from ebay? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned_Mk2_1.8tdci Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Well you are right. Most of the OEM filters are sold without the outlet o-ring, except Mann. Even FoMoCo part (with Delphi stamp on) is without. From my experience do not use Bosch part since it is kind of loose fitting on a crucial spot. Other brands fit just right without o-ring replacement (Mahle, Fram). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mate, not the large seal around the filter lid. There is a smaller 19mm o-ring fits into the recess in the lid. It has to be the correct cross section to seal properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
