Which size oil filter cup for OM642 engine?

[Lord_Lucan]

Hi all,

I wondered what size oil filter cup I'd need for my OM642 engine'd car. I'm looking for the mm diameter and the number of flutes please. Thanks in advance.

84mm , 14 flutes on mine , it was an eBay special .

Top man...I was thinking of going the same route....great minds and tight wallets

We can now share our extensive knowledge on diesels as we have the same om642

Speaking for myself I'm not sure about the term "knowledge" haha. It makes a brum-brum noise I can tell you that
