Hengst H17W02 Engine Oil Filter

The Hengst H17W02 is an engine oil filter built with enhanced cellulose filter media for dependable oil filtration in a wide range of gasoline and diesel applications.

Key Features

• Enhanced cellulose filter media for effective contaminant capture
• Engine oil filter for routine maintenance and oil service intervals
• Direct replacement for many OE-style spin-on applications
• Compatible with a broad range of Ford, Toyota, Lexus, Mazda, and Mercury vehicles
• Part number H17W02 for easy catalog lookup and cross-reference

Detailed Description

Hengst H17W02 is an engine oil filter engineered for vehicles that use a spin-on oil filter design. The enhanced cellulose media helps trap dirt, soot, and other suspended particles in engine oil so clean oil can continue circulating through the lubrication system. This filter is a practical choice for maintenance on applications such as the 1995-2001 Ford Explorer, 1995-2000 Ford Ranger, and 2010-2011 Toyota Tundra, along with many other listed fitments.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 40210) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Dirty engine oil from normal wear and combustion byproducts
• Reduced filtration performance during scheduled oil changes
• Contaminant buildup in high-mileage engines
• Maintenance needs on spin-on oil filter applications
• Replacement of worn or clogged oil filters on Ford Explorer and Toyota Tundra platforms

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s engine and filter style before ordering, since fitment varies by year, model, and production date. Confirm the notes shown for specific applications, including date cutoffs such as “to 10/2010” or “from 11/2007.” Replace the oil filter during every oil service and check the sealing surface for debris before installing the new filter.

Quality Assurance

Hengst is an established filtration brand with broad OE and aftermarket coverage. The H17W02 uses enhanced cellulose media and is cataloged against extensive interchange references to support accurate replacement selection.
