I am always surprised by how much the filter on the right in your photo sticks out of the bowl , but I have used that type many times and it always works fine when torqued down to 27 Nm.

Thanks. Does the filter housing adjust to the different lengths via the torque setting?

The spring tensioner is in the bottom of the housing.

I’m guessing the flow of oil is up the centre and drains back down the sides? 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |
