Frequently asked questions

What does the V8 air filter element do?

The V8 air filter element traps dust and abrasive debris from the incoming air before it reaches the carburettor on the 3.5L V8 petrol engine. It protects the induction tract and engine internals from wear. It sits inside the air cleaner housing on the Land Rover Defender and Series 3 Stage One V8.

Which Land Rovers does this V8 air filter fit?

This air filter element fits the carburettor 3.5L V8 petrol engine in the Land Rover Defender (1986-2006) and the Series 3 109 Stage One V8. It suits the carburettor setup only, not later fuel-injected V8s, so confirm your engine runs carburettors before ordering.

When should the V8 air filter be replaced?

Replace the V8 air filter element when it's visibly clogged, oily or damaged, or at the service points in your vehicle's maintenance schedule. A blocked filter restricts airflow to the carburettor, which richens the mixture, hurts running and can foul plugs. Clean dry air keeps the V8 fuelling correctly.
