Diesel Fuel Filter - MAHLE KL490/1D LONG VERSION 2010-2012 3.0L V6 Diesel (3-pin Moisture Sensor)
Includes filter & 4 o-ring seals.
Not for 2004-2009 models, which have a much smaller moisture sensor hole in the center.
THIS IS NOT A FILTER THAT WAS SUPPLIED AT THE ASSEMBLY PLANT. IT IS A LESS COSTLY OPTION FOR THOSE WANTING TO DO A CONVERSION.
If
you are planning on removing and replacing the original Clic style
fuel hose clamps on top of the filter, you will need one 13 mm clamp and
one 15mm clamp.
Detailed Description
Sprinter II 2010-2012 (See below before ordering)
This is the long version fuel filter (119 mm). This filter is less costly than the short version filter shown below. If you are switching from a short version filter to this long version filter, you must also use the longer version moisture sensor in conjunction with this longer filter, as it protrudes farther down into the filter cavity.
See sensor below.
This fuel filter uses the three pin removable moisture sensor shown below.
If you have a 2012 or later model, check your fuel filter carefully, as there was a change during the 2012 year and the newer models have a non-removable 5-pin sensor, which is only available as a complete unit with the filter. See below. You cannot determine which filter to use by the VIN.
