New in OE

6 September 2016  

Sogefi has been selected by Audi to supply the oil filter for its new 4.0l V8 TDI engine which will power this year’s Q7 and future models, such as the Audi A8 and Porsche Panamera.

The filter and module for this Euro6c engine is lightweight, comprising a glass fibre reinforced polyamide housing and cover plus an Eco filter element.  The oil filter is located inside the crankcase, completely surrounded with constant flows of blow-by gas, hot oil and burnt residues that can be very aggressive and corrosive.
