0B5398060A Volkswagen FILTER INS

This little guy basically cleans the fuel as it travels from your fuel tank to your engine. It catches dirt, rust, and any other debris that might be floating around in there. It's a simple filter, usually just a housing with a replaceable filter element inside. Some have a clear housing so you can actually see how dirty it’s getting. It sits in line with your fuel line – hence the name. It’s usually located somewhere between the fuel tank and the fuel rail, before the fuel gets to the injectors. It’s not the main fuel filter—most cars still have one near the tank, or as part of the fuel pump assembly—but it’s an extra layer of protection, especially important if your tank’s seen some age or you’ve had issues with fuel quality. Think of it as a shield for your fuel injectors. Those injectors are really precise little parts, and even small bits of crud can clog them up, causing all sorts of problems—rough running, poor fuel economy, even engine damage. A clean fuel supply means everything runs smoother and lasts longer. You'll notice if it starts to clog—engine might stumble, especially under load, or you’ll just get generally poor performance. They're pretty inexpensive to replace, so it’s a smart preventative maintenance item. You can find a good selection of them, including this inline filter, over at Fixparts Online, along with everything else you might need for the job. Built to last: Inline Fuel Filter (MPN 0B5398060A) includes a 12-month warranty!
