Puma 2.4 - Best Fuel Filter?
Whilst I pity those of you delayed by Brexit in receiving your £10k Canyon bikes, I in return am having to look at alternative suppliers (And therefore Brands) from my usual UK suspects. I'm looking to replace my fuel filter, is there any mileage in paying 40€ for a brand such as Mable over a tenner for Britpart/Bearmach? Monsieur Le Grenadier

I would at least buy one from a proper filter maker like Mann. Who knows where Bearmach or Britpart source their filters, might be ok, but the fuel injection system is pretty delicate and expensive to fix so not worth chancing it in my opinion. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

You might find a cross reference with another filter you can buy locally cheaper if you look on this page (it's for a 2.4 one). There are a number of cross references. It's amazing what you can figure out will fit with a list of part numbers and Google.

Thanks Bluest. My apologies, auto-correct. Was meant to have read Mahle. Mann I can find. As you say, keen to avoid the blue box from China.

I’m playing the same game tracking down a starter motor by Bosch. Peugeot ‘version’ is 120€ whereas the Defender version is 240€. Will check with the forum shortly that they’re one and the same.

Thumbs Up Monsieur Le Grenadier

Get an OE (Stanadyne) filter, don't €urocent pinch on filters Thumbs Up You'll be more than €30 Censored off if the cheapy fails you.

If you can get hold of Bearmach stuff locally (or from a EU supplier), then they do list a Stanadyne filter option: https://bearmach.com/fuel-filter-suitable-...-wji500040

Thanks Martin. Wise rods. Last time I tried Bearmach’s site (they have a Euro version) it was suspended. I’ll check again tomorrow. Will also being buying oil filter using same principles. Monsieur Le Grenadier
