The MANN HU 711/6 z oil filter fitted to many popular Mercedes applications, including the A,B,C and E Class, is in high demand at present. To help meet this increased demand, MANN-FILTER has released an additional oil filter element, HU 7044 z which can be fitted to the same applications.

The main difference between the HU 711/6 z and HU 7044 z is that the HU 711/6 z seals using foil discs, whereas the new HU 7044 z features welded plastic end caps. There is no difference in the filter performance as both elements are manufactured and thoroughly tested to ensure they meet the respective specifications.

The HU 711/6 z and HU 7044 z are also fully interchangeable.
