Detailed Description

Bosch engineered the Premium Oil Filter 3511 to help keep dirt and harmful particles out of the engine oil stream, reducing wear on internal components. The cellulose paper media is paired with a 20 micron rating to capture fine contaminants, while the anti-drain back valve helps maintain oil in the filter between starts. A bypass relief valve is included to support oil delivery if the filter media becomes restricted.

Common Problems This Filter Can Help Address

• Excess engine wear caused by contaminated oil
• Reduced oil flow from a restricted or overloaded filter
• Oil drain-back after shutdown that can delay lubrication at startup
• Premature filter sealing issues from worn gasket material
• Maintenance intervals where consistent filtration is needed

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the 13/16-16 thread size and overall filter dimensions before installation. Replace the filter during routine oil service, and lubricate the gasket with clean engine oil before tightening to help achieve a proper seal. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s torque and service procedures for the best results.
