Well the very obvious answer is Mercedes.............BUT........but when I call my local main dealer this service filter only comes with the whole header tank

I find that hard to believe as the oil and filter should be changed every XX,0000 miles ! Rather makes a mockery of change the oil if you cannot buy a filter unless you buy the whole header tank

Still I read the filters now 3 micron so maybe that's a reason

Anyone have a source for them or the actual part number........

Even better a source for them in the UK

I will try direct to Mann and Mahle I believe they make all Mercedes filters anyway air or oil

I have no idea why you posted that reply on cross-origin resource, Its a car filter not an internet spam one

Update........... I still cannot source one so I have asked AMG but no reply other than looking into it.

What??

I thought that FCP Euro had a kit for fluid and the filter - I'll see if I can find a part number that may be helpful.

And it looks like what I saw on FCP Euro supports the previous version.

I did see on a Japanese site that they were using p/n 0031846101 (filter from the previous generation) but couldn't tell if it actually worked. In the pictures, the reservoir was open but that's about all I saw.

Hi Tom
Thank you for the reply

Yes I think its the same filter but MB redesigned the expansion tank which makes it far harder to change a filter. It also makes it harder to stop contamination when changing it hence saying its not for a R231 only a R230 you need a whole tank
I found on this or another website a link to this video on how to change it. I cannot find the thread tonight.


So I will get the R230 filter and change it over the winter when the cars not used
