130PD oil filter

[skoov]

Hello,

Does anybody know if you can buy an oil filter for the 130PD from Halfords? I checked yesterday and the book said "ask at desk" and the guy gave me a filter. When I got home, drained all my oil and came to fit it, it was the wrong one

Unfortunately I can't take the old one in to show them as I need it in the car to get to work.

My "local" seat dealer is 25 miles away, which is why I don't go there if I can help it

Thanks

better with a genuine one, Vdub or Skoda closer?

Hmm, there's a VW dealer closer to me - I'll give them a call...

Thanks

i had the same prob hailfrauds sold me the metal external type oil filter which was wrong so went back and asked for refund but only a credit note cause i threw reciept they wanted £8 ish for it.

went to local car parts shop gave me correct type (non external or metal ) only cost £5

Well I managed to get a refund at Halfrauds and picked up the proper filter from the VW garage for just over £6.

If anyone's interested, the part number for the filter is:

071 115 562 A (from VW)

The SEAT part number is the same with an 'S' infront

I'd say the Helfrauds filter and SEAT one would be pretty much the same price

Did you manage to unscrew the filter cover OK ?

When I changed the filter on the Passat (same engine/filter) it was like it had been welded shut, took a LOT of force with a strap wrench...

The first time I did it I broke a strap wrench, and I got a nice big scar on my hand for the trouble. Has been easier to get off ever since

Well the incorrect filter they gave me cost just under a tenner and they didn't stock the correct one

Yeah I managed to get mine off OK with a large adjustable
