Installation Notes

  1. Ensure the engine is off and has completely cooled down. Locate the air filter housing.
  2. Release the clips, clamps, or bolts securing the housing cover and carefully remove it.
  3. Take note of the old filter's orientation before removing it from the housing.
  4. Clean any dirt or debris from inside the air filter housing with a clean cloth. Do not use compressed air, which can force dirt into the intake.
  5. Insert the new air filter, ensuring it is seated correctly and forms a tight seal.
  6. Replace the housing cover and secure it with the original clips, clamps, or bolts. Double-check that it is sealed properly.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How can I confirm this air filter is correct for my Volvo Penta engine?

Verify your engine model is listed in the "Engine & Model Compatibility" table. It is also crucial to visually compare your old filter to our product images and specifications to ensure an exact match.

What are the signs that my marine air filter needs replacement?

Common indicators of a clogged or failing air filter include a noticeable decrease in engine power, reduced acceleration, higher than normal fuel consumption, or black smoke from the exhaust. A visual inspection showing excessive dirt and debris is also a clear sign.

How often should this air filter be replaced?

The replacement interval depends on your engine's operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater, dusty environments). We recommend following the service schedule in your Volvo Penta owner's manual. As a general rule, inspect it at every service interval and replace as needed.

Is any special preparation needed before installing this filter?

No, this is a dry filter element. It does not require any oiling or chemical treatment before installation. Simply unbox it and place it into the clean filter housing.

Is this a genuine Volvo Penta OEM part?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). It's built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Our products are manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility and are batch-inspected for consistency and quality.

What are your shipping speed and cost?

We ship worldwide quickly—typical transit is 5–15 days. Standard shipping is free for most destinations; expedited options will appear at checkout if they are available for your location.

What is the warranty and return policy?

This part is covered by a 1-year warranty against manufacturing defects under normal marine use. If you encounter any issues, please contact our support team with your order details. Returns are accepted within our standard window, provided the item is unused and in its original condition. See our full policy page or reach out for instructions.
