Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this air filter fits my engine?
This filter is designed for Volvo Penta TAMD63 series engines. Check the Engine & Model Compatibility table on this page and compare the OEM part number (3825038) to your existing part or service manual. If your model is listed as compatible but the part looks different, do not install it.
Is the TAMD72A engine model compatible?
The TAMD72A model is listed as compatible by some aftermarket sources, but not all. We recommend you verify the part number 3825038 is correct for your specific TAMD72A service manual before purchasing, as variations may exist.
What are the signs of a clogged or failing air filter?
Common symptoms include reduced engine power, increased black smoke from the exhaust, higher fuel consumption, and sluggish throttle response. A visual inspection may show the filter media is dark, dirty, or damaged.
How often should this air filter be replaced?
Replacement intervals depend on operating conditions (e.g., dusty or salty air). As a general guideline, inspect the filter annually and replace it if it appears dirty or clogged, or as recommended in your engine's service manual.
