What you need to know:
- Fuel filters rid petrol and diesel fuel of contaminants such as rust, soot, debris, water, among others. Such matter can enter the fuel system while filling the fuel tank or already be in the fuel itself.
- Dirty fuel can damage the fuel injectors. Even the smallest particle deposits in an injector can compromise injection behavior and thus have a negative impact on engine performance and fuel economy. This can lead to a total failure of the fuel injection system and thus result in vehicle breakdown along with elaborate and costly repairs.
- Malfunctioning or clogged fuel filters can also affect the engine performance, as well as the length of its service life. A leaky fuel filter can cause environmental pollution and even result in an engine or vehicle fire.
Opt for the Genuine Part because:
- Joint development and engineering efforts between the filter and vehicle manufacturers provide for reliable performance throughout the entire life cycle. Joint field tests also ensure this.
- The impermeability of their seals outperforms legally required tolerance thresholds, which is in the interest of both environmental protection and safety.
- Their high-grade materials and elaborate structural design offer maximum particle separation and dirt retention capacity.
- They ensure trouble-free engine operation, low engine wear and extended service life.
- They preclude costly repairs of the fuel injection system and lower the risk of vehicle breakdowns.
