Installation Notes

Verify the outlet connection size before installation; this part uses M12x1.5 on the outlet side and lists no inlet size. Confirm the vehicle year, model, and fuel system configuration against the fitment data, especially on 300D, 350SDL, 300SDL, and 300TD applications noted as OE type or spin-on type.

For best results, install on a clean fuel system and inspect sealing surfaces and line connections during service. This part cross-references Mercedes-Benz OE-style fuel filter applications for the same vehicle coverage.
