🚗 Dade Fuel Filter for Mercedes W163 ML320 ML430 ML55 AMG - Part Number: 163 477 07 01 Review

The filter arrived a day early and was exactly the same as the manufacturer's original product. Fits great and was packaged very nicely, I would buy again.

I was skeptical at first because of the price. But this filter was installed without any problems and has been working perfectly for more than 1 month. Hopefully it filters the same as the original filter.

2 of the 3 clamp connectors on the lines fit perfectly. The third one didn't fit so I had to file a brand new line connector to fit this thing as the edge was lower than the original one. So no OEM quality, but at least served its purpose.

It is important to verify the part number before ordering. I have a 2000 ML320 and the smallest vacuum line fitting didn't fit so I had to tweak it a bit. Also, when installing, be careful not to pinch it in the tight space where the filter is located, as one of the nipple connections will shear off the block, which could result in fuel spillage. I had to throw it away. I couldn't try my new filter. I don't know why these machines are so much more difficult to use than the Japanese ones.
