Review on Mann Filter WK842 23X Fuel Filter by Mike Travers

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Poor quality control or counterfeits entering the supply chain?

I think the price is right. I was surprised that the filter element was painted black - the original, genuine element has an unpainted metal finish as shown in the photos. Another disturbing "feature" of this (fake?) item is that the water sensor bracket has been twisted to prevent the water sensor from seating properly and therefore the screw holes have been misaligned. I had to adjust the metal tabs with pliers to get the sensor in place with the screw holes aligned.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Functionality
