Maintaining clean fuel is critical for diesel engine longevity, protecting high-pressure fuel pumps and injectors from abrasive contaminants. This filter kit provides a factory-specified solution, incorporating a sealing gasket to ensure the fuel system remains sealed against leaks and air ingress after servicing. The listed part numbers provide a broad cross-reference for accurate vehicle matching, covering common OEM and aftermarket codes for these popular European models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Opel Vauxhall diesel fuel filter element with gasket, 106mm tall, 88mm outer diameter.\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/416\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/1580271f-877f-48df-9502-12a79be5a5f6.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe filter is defined by its specific dimensional profile, which ensures it fits correctly within the vehicle's fuel filter housing. Its construction centres on filtration media capable of handling diesel fuel, paired with a compatible sealing gasket material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaterial and Build\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe primary component is the filter element itself, constructed from filtration media designed to capture particulates and contaminants present in diesel fuel. This helps maintain fuel purity entering the engine's fuel rail and injectors. The kit includes a separate sealing gasket, typically made from a fuel-resistant elastomer, which is essential for creating a leak-proof seal between the filter housing and the fuel lines during reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSize and Practical Fit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrecise dimensions are vital for correct installation. This filter has a height of 106mm, a primary outer diameter (OD\/Width 1) of 88mm, and a secondary width (OD\/Width 2) of 90mm. The maximum inner depth (ID\/Depth Max) of 24.5mm dictates how it interfaces with the central post or fitting within the housing. These measurements must align with the original equipment's specifications for the filter to seat properly and function as intended without restriction or bypass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUses and Placement\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Opel Vauxhall diesel fuel filter element with gasket, 106mm tall, 88mm outer diameter.\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/416\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/3628c278-635a-4043-9f6d-6ad1bd156270.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part serves a single, defined purpose: filtering diesel fuel in compatible vehicles.

It allows for efficient, correct part replacement using the supplied gasket, reducing the risk of post-service fuel leaks which are a common workshop callback issue. The clear part number cross-reference aids quick identification in parts inventory systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEveryday Home Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the competent DIY enthusiast, this kit provides all necessary components for a straightforward filter change on their own vehicle, assuming they have the basic tools and follow safe procedures for working with diesel fuel systems. The inclusion of the gasket removes the need to source it separately, preventing installation errors where an old seal might be reused.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBenefits and Buying Value\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Opel Vauxhall diesel fuel filter element with gasket, 106mm tall, 88mm outer diameter.\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/416\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/a6bc92a3-d07f-48cf-a487-c3f3dce76014.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe value lies in restoring designed filtration performance and preventing issues caused by a clogged or failing filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReuse and Low Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFuel filters are not reusable; they are consumable service items replaced at intervals. The low-maintenance aspect comes from the kit's completeness—having the correct gasket on hand avoids a second trip to the parts shop and ensures the job can be finished properly in one go, saving time and potential vehicle downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Choose This Product\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoosing this specific filter is primarily about guaranteed compatibility. The listed dimensions and extensive part number cross-reference (23304095, 23304096, 22937279, 23456595, 23459023, PU9012Z, TP1015) directly support fitment for Astra K and MK VII (K) models from 2015 onwards. This reduces the risk of receiving an incorrect part that does not fit the housing, which is a common problem with generic filters. The practical benefit is a reliable, leak-free filter change using a component matched to the original specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Opel Vauxhall diesel fuel filter element with gasket, 106mm tall, 88mm outer diameter.\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/416\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/ced24905-dc10-450b-9cc7-6ccf1b25eb26.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Opel Vauxhall diesel fuel filter element with gasket, 106mm tall, 88mm outer diameter.\" src=\"https:\/\/images.seoo.uk\/src\/products\/shopify_export\/US12\/416\/2025-10-02\/original-image\/e8080e88-8a90-4e09-9e62-19ad2489ee57.webp\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"yvbajw-qj","offers":[{"title":"Picture Color","offer_id":56427030217030,"sku":"CJQT176269201AZ","price":21.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/3228\/3974\/files\/ced24905-dc10-450b-9cc7-6ccf1b25eb26.webp?v=1776950530","url":"https:\/\/fiorevale.com\/products\/genuine-opel-vauxhall-diesel-fuel-filter-element-106mm-height-88mm-outer-diameter-with-sealing-gasket-kit-compatible-with-astra-mk-vii-k-and-astra-k-sports-tourer-models-from-2015-onwards-replacement-part-number-23304095-23304096","provider":"Fiorevale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
