looking for an oilfilter holder 745 tdi

Sep 17, 2012 7 Replies

Hi folks,



my 745 tdi has developed a nasty problem - a small fissure in the part that connects the engineblock to the oil filter cartridge. The oilspill through that fissure is not neglegible when the engine is hot and the oil under pressure.



See the pictures here

Unfortunately, this part is no longer available from Volvo or Volkswagen, the orginal manufacturer of the LT-Diesel engine.



If somebody happens to have this as a spare part and is ready to part from that (that's why it's called a spare part, I guess), just let me know please!



Thanks!



The original volvo part number is 1328197, the VW number is 075115417. Cheers, Ulli


They have it here:

Jan-Erik,

thank you so much for this hint - it is the first source (apart from a complete "refurbished", yet unknown history engine I'm seeing now.

But: The drawing looks very different from the part I have here. If you compare the product drawing with the part in my images (the product number was provided by our local Volvo garage), it resembles it only very remotely.

Any idea?

Cheers,

U.

1986 - one of the very first 745 TD delivered.

It seems though that I have a solution - not yet verifiedm but chances are pretty good. The filter holder for the Volkswagen T4 has the same engine-side geometry as my cracked part. Fitting the filter cartridge /should/ be possible somehow. I'll let you know.

Cheers, U.

Today, I got a replacement part (used, but almost as new), and hopefully, my car will run again this weekend.

Cheers, and thanks to all who sent me good advice by mail too!
