Oil filters in Astana
The oil filter traps wear particles, carbon and dust that get into the engine oil, and engine life depends on it directly. We select filters by VIN for your engine: spin-on canisters and replaceable cartridges, original and proven aftermarket in stock in Astana. It's changed with every oil change, so it's handy to buy together with oil and a drain plug washer.

Types of oil filters
A spin-on filter is a metal canister with the filter media inside and is replaced as a whole. A cartridge filter is just a replaceable paper or synthetic element that fits into a permanent housing on the engine; it usually comes with new O-rings. A spin-on filter contains an anti-drain-back valve (keeps oil from draining out after shutdown) and a bypass valve (lets oil around clogged media, e.g. on a cold start).
When to replace the oil filter
The filter is replaced with every oil change — per the manufacturer's schedule that's usually every 7–15k km or once a year. Stop-and-go city traffic, frequent short trips, long winter idling and dust count as severe conditions, which shorten the interval. Never leave an old filter on fresh oil: clogged media opens the bypass valve and unfiltered oil goes to the engine.
How to choose: original or aftermarket
Similar-looking filters differ in thread, seal diameter, bypass valve opening pressure and whether they have an anti-drain-back valve, so matching «by size» is risky — different versions of one model can use different filters. Select by VIN: we show original and proven aftermarket from Mann-Filter, Mahle, Bosch, Filtron and Hengst in stock in Astana.

FAQ
Yes. Even if it looks clean outside, the media has already collected dirt: on fresh oil it will clog faster and open the bypass valve.
A spin-on filter is replaced complete with its metal canister; with a cartridge only the element and O-rings are replaced while the housing stays on the engine. VIN selection shows which one your car has.
Not always: bypass valve pressure and the anti-drain-back valve can differ. VIN selection is safer — the filter will match your engine exactly.
