Oil filters are absolutely necessary to keep the engine oil clean from
­particles and sludge. Clean oil is vital for the engine in order to reach
optimal performance, long service intervals and long lifetime.

FAQ
What kind of filter paper is used? Genuine Volvo oil filters contain a specially produced, densely pleated and embossed filter
paper made from fine and coarse cellulose fibers, which give the correct efficiency and
capacity. The crimped joint in the filter paper on a Genuine Volvo oil filter is particularly
effective giving 100% sealing along its full length. Advanced technology and extensive
laboratory resources are needed to produce a filter paper with exactly the right pore
structure. The photo (1) shows a Genuine Volvo oil filter paper magnified 100 times. Second
photo (2) shows how the filter media is pleated to obtain large filter area.

What kind of testing is performed to In order to secure fulfillment of Volvo specifications extensive bench tests are performed,
ensure the quality? e.g. tests for dust holding capacity, filtration efficiency, burst pressure, pressure fatigue and
O-ring aging. In addition millions of kilometers of testing on vehicles have been performed
for each engine type.

How can filters be impacted by Genuine Volvo filters works with all approved engine oils with the most common SAE
oil quality? viscosity classes like 10W30, 10W40, etc.
