This is an Oil Filter Housing Gasket, designed to create a seal between the oil filter housing and the engine block or oil cooler. Its primary function is to prevent oil leaks and maintain proper oil pressure within the lubrication system. A degraded or damaged gasket will manifest as oil seepage or drips around the filter housing, potentially leading to low oil levels and lubrication issues.
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.
The initial symptom of a failing oil filter housing gasket is typically visible oil seepage or small drips around the filter housing area. If left unaddressed, these leaks can worsen, leading to a noticeable drop in oil level and potentially low oil pressure warnings. Continued operation with a compromised seal can result in inadequate lubrication of engine components.
Clean the mating surfaces of both the filter housing and the engine block thoroughly before installing the new gasket. Ensure the gasket is seated correctly and evenly to prevent any high spots or gaps.
Always replace the oil filter when replacing the oil filter housing gasket, as the housing must be removed.
