Factory Auto Parts Diesel Fuel Filter: 106mm Height Filter Element with Gasket Kit for Vauxhall and Opel Astra Models
This diesel fuel filter element with integrated gasket kit provides specific filtration for Vauxhall Astra MK VII and Opel Astra K vehicles manufactured from 2015. The 106mm height and 88-90mm outer diameter ensure precise compatibility with these models' fuel systems, while the 24.5mm maximum inner depth accommodates standard fuel line connections. Multiple type numbers including 23304095, 23304096, 22937279, 23456595, 23459023, PU9012Z, and TP1015 indicate manufacturing specifications that match original equipment requirements.
Filter Specifications and Compatibility Details
The filter's dimensional accuracy ensures proper installation in designated vehicle applications without modification. With specific measurements documented for height, outer diameter, and inner depth, this component maintains fuel system integrity during operation.
Precise Dimensional Engineering
Measuring 106mm in height with outer diameters of 88mm and 90mm, this filter maintains the exact proportions required for Astra MK VII and K model fuel housings. The 24.5mm maximum inner depth provides sufficient clearance for fuel line connections while maintaining structural integrity under standard operating pressures. These measurements correspond to factory specifications for proper sealing and flow characteristics.
Manufacturing Standards and Type Numbers
Seven distinct type numbers (23304095, 23304096, 22937279, 23456595, 23459023, PU9012Z, TP1015) indicate specific manufacturing batches and compatibility variations. Each number corresponds to particular production standards that ensure consistent filtration performance and material quality. These identifiers help mechanics verify correct part selection for specific vehicle configurations and production dates.
Construction and Sealing Properties
Vehicle Applications and Usage Scenarios
Designed specifically for post-2015 Astra models, this filter addresses the maintenance requirements of modern diesel fuel systems. The compatibility extends across multiple body styles and trim levels within the specified model range.
Professional Automotive Maintenance
Mechanics servicing Vauxhall Astra MK VII (K) and Opel Astra K vehicles from 2015 onwards will find this filter matches factory specifications for routine fuel system maintenance. The precise 106mm height ensures proper housing clearance, while the 88-90mm diameter range accommodates manufacturing tolerances in different production batches. Estate and Sports Tourer variants from November 2015 require the same dimensional specifications for consistent performance.
Everyday Vehicle Ownership
Astra owners performing their own maintenance appreciate the straightforward installation enabled by the integrated gasket kit. The secure fit resulting from the 24.5mm inner depth provides confidence in the connection's integrity, while the colour-coded packaging helps identify the correct component quickly among other automotive parts. The replacement process follows standard procedures familiar to most DIY enthusiasts.
Versatility Across Model Variants
Performance Benefits and System Protection
Regular filter replacement maintains fuel system efficiency and prevents costly component damage. The specific dimensional accuracy ensures optimal performance within the designed parameters of Astra diesel engines.
Long-Term Value and Maintenance Costs
Using correctly specified filters prevents premature wear on fuel injectors and high-pressure pumps, potentially extending component life beyond standard service intervals. The precise 106mm height and 88-90mm diameter ensure proper filtration without restricting fuel flow, maintaining engine efficiency and potentially improving fuel economy over time compared to incorrectly sized alternatives.
Reliability and System Integrity
Maintenance Simplicity and Correct Application</h3
The clear type number identification (23304095, 23304096, 22937279, 23456595, 23459023, PU9012Z, TP1015) helps ensure the right filter gets installed for each specific vehicle configuration. This precision reduces the risk of incorrect part installation that could compromise fuel system performance or require subsequent correction, saving time and potential additional costs during routine maintenance procedures.
