i.e.

The TD5 filters have a smaller surface area than a 3.9(T)D filter element, and they do not have the secondary safety element. If you fitted one to a 3.9D you would likely have a higher pressure drop and less efficient filtration.

Thanks for the numbers

Hmmm, thats 2 dealers to retarded to find one

Its a filter made specifically for LR, not available through Donaldson!....well, so I was told by a Donaldson dealer

Fingers crossed......

Ok, so Donaldson tells me the filter is LR part no. AYG0527 and restricted to LR only, Trinity LR the dude...only helpful one I have found mind you, tells me its a AYG0526, which is supersceded to AYG0527 but they look different he tells me, hmmm

1103.9Tdi, does any of your reciepts correspond to this? time to step up to the plate

So, AYG0527 is $433, happy to buy a newy, but wanting to know for sure its the correct filter.....pretty certain it will be, just the dude up north thinks the picture only shows one outlet facing down, not 2...the duck bill and air inlet.....maybe another call to Donaldson, the woman there was extremely helpful

Sorry Matt, and thanks for the heads up, I haven't been watching this thread, mate, I'm pretty sure I gave my original receipts to a mate who was also doing the conversion. He has never returned them. I'll give Trinity here a call here and check the numbers tomorrow for you, I'll also check with NTS and Detroit, they seem good for Donaldson parts, especially on the price, $433 seems a bit . Is that for the complete setup - inner, outer and housing?. Still waiting for a slot on the Dyno that suits.

Matt - just call Donaldson, say you need a 3" inlet and outlet in which positions, and tell them the capacity.

There are probably much better options than the OE filter these days.

Ok, $393, AYG527, Matt from Trinity land rover in Cairns deserves a plug, he even went to the lenghts of getting pictures direct from LR and emailed them to me to confirm it was the correct filter

But I had to order from my local

whats wrong with the one you have?
