This fuel filter is a factory replacement for your 03-06 Mercedes E55. The factory does not sell a replacement filter but rather wants to sell you the entire housing assembly at a much higher cost.
Filters are lower micron then the factory filter which help protect not only your injectors but your engine as well. Replacement intervals need to be more frequent as the filter is trapping more particles then factory filter. Filter may have residue on housing from gluing end caps on, we do not consider this a defect, only cosmetic.

I searched the web and couldn’t find a replacement filter anywhere until I came across this one, wow thank you guys it arrived in five days to New Zealand and was fitted the same day, it fits and works perfectly thank you very much, by buying this very good and very cheap filter saved me replacing the whole sender unit I can’t give enough praise. Fantastic product and service AAAA++++
