Oil filter/cartridge

Hiya. Without appearing dense, is an oil filter the same as a oil separator cartridge. It’s on a Mercedes Axor 56 plate.

This looks like the cartridge on the air drier. It separates any oil out of the compressed air system, also helps to reduce water vapour going into your system

It’s a filter/drying cartridge for the air system.

If it doesn’t look like it’s been changed in a while, you should change it.

doesnt look that bad lol, i have seen worse!

handy tip when you change filters, write the date on them so you know old it is!

Thanks for the help. My truck just went in for its MOT which included a service and oil and filter change… and if that was the oil filter I was going to be having words!

Thanks again.

looks like an oil seperator cartridge. same as the air dryeer cartridge for the brakes but is supposed to remove the oil that the compressor passes. more ££££ aswell
