Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper installation is vital for the performance of the W 67 oil filter. Always begin by consulting your vehicle owner's manual to locate the oil filter position and confirm the correct torque specifications.
- Ensure the engine is cool before beginning work.
- Place a drain pan underneath the filter area.
- Remove the old filter, ensuring the old rubber gasket comes off with the unit.
- Clean the engine mounting surface with a lint-free cloth.
- Apply a light film of fresh engine oil to the new filter gasket.
- Hand-tighten the W 67 onto the engine stud until snug, then tighten according to manufacturer specs.
- Check for leaks after the first engine start.
To ensure peak protection, dispose of the used filter and oil in accordance with your local environmental regulations.
