This is an oil filter housing gasket designed to seal the oil filter housing to the engine block, preventing oil leaks and maintaining proper oil pressure within the engine's lubrication system. It is manufactured to meet stringent Volvo quality standards, ensuring a reliable seal that prevents the bypass of unfiltered oil, unlike a worn or damaged gasket which can lead to internal contamination. Operators may notice oil leaks around the filter housing, a drop in oil pressure readings, or an oil warning light illuminating on the dashboard when this gasket fails.
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.
Visible oil leaks originating from the oil filter housing area are the first indication of a failed gasket. If left unaddressed, these leaks can worsen, leading to a significant loss of engine oil and a corresponding drop in oil pressure. Continued operation with low oil pressure can cause accelerated wear on critical engine components.
Ensure the mounting surfaces on both the engine block and the oil filter housing are perfectly clean and free of old gasket material before installation. Do not overtighten the housing bolts, as this can deform the gasket and cause new leaks.
Always replace the engine oil filter when replacing the oil filter housing gasket.
