Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this filter fits my Volvo Penta engine?
A: Check the "Compatible Engine Models" table on this page. Your engine model (e.g., KAD300-A, TAMD61A) should be listed. Also, verify that your current filter uses part number 876185 or one of the superseded numbers like 463505 or 876129.

Q: What are the signs that my air filter needs replacing?
A: Common signs include reduced engine performance, increased black smoke from the exhaust, and higher fuel consumption. A visual inspection showing a clogged or dirty filter also indicates it's time for a replacement.

Q: How often should I replace my engine's air filter?
A: Replacement intervals depend on operating conditions (e.g., saltwater vs. freshwater, dusty environments). We recommend inspecting it during regular engine service and replacing it at least once per season or as specified by your Volvo Penta engine manual.
