We’ve recently discovered that OEM filters are manufactured by both Mahle and Mann, depending on the application. We carry what Volvo carries, so you can be sure that you’re getting OEM, whichever model you own. See descriptions below for details.

Capture every microspeck of metal that causes engine wear. Debris that your oil filter alone might not be able to screen. Made of flexible polyurethane. Simply attach it to the outside of your oil filter and let it do the work.

Oil flows through your automatic transmission and power steering system to transmit power, lubricate parts and provide cooling. Contaminants (like dirt, metal fragments and fibers) result in the oil working like sandpaper. Instead of lubricating, the oil gradually wears out the parts it’s supposed to protect. Under normal driving conditions, the oil can be contaminated in just 25 hours of driving.

These filters stop ferrous metal via a magnet. The remaining metal and dirt is stopped by the paper element.

Installing a Magnefine in-line filter will remove 99.997% of damaging contamination, making the oil cleaner than when your vehicle first left the factory. And it will keep it that way.
Fits most Volvo models (not for 40 series).
