This air dryer filter is an essential component of the vehicle's air brake system, removing moisture and contaminants from the compressed air to prevent system freeze-up and corrosion. Manufactured to meet stringent Volvo standards, it provides superior filtration efficiency and longevity compared to a clogged or saturated filter. Symptoms of a failing air dryer filter include air brake system leaks, sluggish brake response, or the presence of water in the air lines.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
A clogged air dryer filter may initially cause a slight delay in air brake system pressure buildup or a faint hissing sound from the air system. If left unaddressed, the system can become waterlogged, leading to sluggish brake application and potential freezing of air valves in cold temperatures. The ultimate consequence is compromised braking performance, posing a significant safety risk.
Ensure the air dryer housing is clean and the sealing surfaces are free of debris before installing the new filter to prevent air leaks. Do not overtighten the filter cap, as this can damage the threads or the housing.
Inspect the air compressor, air tanks, and all air lines for signs of moisture or contamination when replacing the air dryer filter.
