hi, ive searched and cant find the thread but i know you can get a oil filter from a different car that is shorter but still fits the same eg.does anybody know what its from or the part number? because its smaller does that mean the oil will need changing more often? thanks andy ________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

Why the need for a shorter filter anyway? ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.

It helps to keep the oil system primed if it has a non return valve, the pressure relief allows umfiltered oil to still flow in the event the filter becomes totally clogged. Not an issue on a well serviced car though. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.
