Its spin-on design simplifies installation and replacement. The anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, reducing wear during startup. The bypass relief valve activates between 10 and 20 PSI to allow oil to bypass the filter if it becomes clogged, ensuring continuous lubrication. With a burst pressure rating of 200 PSI, this filter withstands high-pressure conditions without failure. The nitrile gasket provides a secure seal to prevent leaks, and the filter’s dimensions and thread size ensure proper fitment on compatible vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngine oil filtration for Audi A3, A3 Sportback e-tron, and 9-3 models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for Ford Bronco, Mustang, and Explorer engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Toyota 4Runner, Camry, Corolla, and Tacoma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, and Passat models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso compatible with Jeep Wrangler, Land Rover Discovery, and Lexus RX series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the engine is cool before removing the old oil filter to avoid burns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the nitrile gasket before installation for a proper seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-tighten the filter until the gasket contacts the mounting surface, then tighten an additional 3\/4 turn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck for leaks after installation and during initial engine operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBosch maintains strict quality control standards for the Workshop Oil Filter line, including the 72161WS model.
