50014549 Kolbenschmidt OIL FILTER 4549-OX

An oil filter’s job is pretty straightforward – it cleans the engine oil. Engine oil gets dirty quickly, picking up bits of metal, dirt, and combustion byproducts as it circulates. The filter catches all that gunk, making sure only clean oil reaches your engine’s vital parts. It’s basically a fine mesh that traps contaminants while letting the oil flow through. They also maintain oil pressure, helping keep everything lubricated correctly. Think of it as part of your engine’s circulatory system. The oil is the blood, and the filter keeps that blood clean. Without a good filter, those little bits of metal and dirt start circulating, causing wear and tear on everything – pistons, bearings, the whole shebang. It’s located in the engine block, usually near the oil pan, and works constantly whenever the engine is running. It’s hugely important. Dirty oil is a major killer of engines. It causes friction, heat, and eventually, serious damage. A clean oil filter acts like a shield, protecting your engine from premature wear. You’ll notice if it’s getting clogged because your oil pressure light might flicker, or the engine might start running rough. Replacing it regularly – usually with every oil change – is one of the cheapest and easiest ways to extend the life of your engine. We carry a lot of different options here, and you can find them easily on Fixparts Online, but the right one depends on your specific vehicle, so make sure you’ve got that information handy. Year-round reliability: Oil Filter (MPN 50014549) includes a 12-month warranty!
