Product Overview

The 074 115 562 is a robust oil filter element designed to support the health of Volkswagen’s classic yet powerful diesel and petrol engine configurations.

• Type: High-efficiency oil filter cartridge.

• Classification: Genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer).

• Function: Filters out soot, metallic particles, and debris from your engine oil, protecting internal moving parts.

• Importance: For engines that frequently undergo high-load tasks, such as those in the Transporter range, using a genuine filter is critical to maintaining oil pressure and preventing premature bearing wear.

Compatibility & Fitment

This oil filter is a cornerstone component for various high-endurance Volkswagen Group vehicles.

• Compatible Models: Primarily used in the Volkswagen Transporter (T4/T5 series) and other heavy-duty TDI/petrol applications of that era.

• Engine Suitability: Best suited for engines specifying the 074-series filtration system.

• Verification: Fitment is highly specific to the engine build. To guarantee 100% compatibility, please provide your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) when ordering. Our experts will verify this against your vehicle’s build data to ensure the part is a perfect match.

How It Works

The engine oil in your vehicle is its lifeblood. The 074 115 562 filter sits in the lubrication circuit, where the oil pump forces lubricant through high-grade filtration media. This media captures microscopic debris while allowing the oil to flow freely to the crankshaft, camshafts, and turbocharger. By removing abrasive particles, this filter prevents “internal scarring,” ensuring your engine remains smooth, efficient, and protected during every mile.

Performance Benefits

• Enhanced Protection: Effectively traps contaminants that would otherwise cause internal scoring.

• Reliable Oil Pressure: Engineered to maintain stable pressure, which is vital for the health of your engine’s complex components.

• Sludge Prevention: Keeps your engine oil clean, preventing the buildup of harmful deposits that can block oil pathways.

• Longer Engine Life: By reducing internal friction, this filter helps your engine last significantly longer.

Build Quality & Engineering

Genuine Volkswagen parts are manufactured to surpass the performance of generic, “will-fit” aftermarket alternatives:

• High-Density Media: Tested for durability to ensure it maintains its form and efficiency throughout the full service interval.

• Thermal Integrity: The internal structure and sealing components are heat-resistant, designed to handle the high temperatures of active engine operation.

• Precision Fit: Manufactured to exact tolerances to ensure a perfect, leak-free seat within your filter housing.

Installation & Maintenance

• Service Interval: We recommend changing the oil filter at every oil change interval, typically every 10,000 miles or annually, to ensure maximum engine protection.

• Installation Tip: Clean the filter housing thoroughly before installation. Always coat the new rubber seal with a light film of fresh engine oil to ensure a perfect, secure fit.

• Professional Fitting: If you are not familiar with the service procedures for your engine, we recommend having this part installed by a certified mechanic to ensure all torque specifications are followed.

Durability & Storage

To preserve the performance characteristics of the filter media, store this part in a cool, dry area within its original, factory-sealed packaging. Our inventory is managed to ensure that every part you receive is in pristine, factory-fresh condition.
