Product Details and Specifications

The Bosch 3312 oil filter uses cellulose paper as its filtering material, providing a micron rating of 20 to effectively trap contaminants and protect engine components. Its spin-on design with an M20x1.5 thread size ensures straightforward installation on compatible vehicles. The inclusion of an anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, reducing wear during startup. Additionally, the bypass relief valve opens between 12 and 15 PSI to maintain oil flow if the filter becomes clogged. The filter measures approximately 2.95 inches in height and 3.15 inches in diameter, fitting a variety of models from Acura, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, Genesis, Geo, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu, Kia, Mazda, Mercury, Mitsubishi, Pontiac, Scion, Subaru, and Toyota.

Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the engine is cool before removing the old oil filter. Apply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the nitrile gasket on the Bosch 3312 filter before installation to ensure a proper seal. Tighten the filter by hand until the gasket contacts the mounting surface, then follow vehicle-specific torque specifications if available. The anti-drain back valve helps maintain oil in the filter during installation, reducing dry starts.
