Mopar 68235275AA 6823 5275AA, Fuel Filter

This is an oem oil filter, and the price is right.

This is the new, upgraded, fuel filter for the '14-'18 (maybe '19) Ram EcoDiesel. It may fit other applications as well (but certainly not the Jeep EcoDiesels through '18).It is what I use on my '16 Ram EcoDiesel.I find them them to be 2X as hard to push on to the filter housing tube compared to the original (see below).Compared to the original design, it is supposed to better resist crushing under pressure and leakage around the end seals. However, you should follow the same precautions as with the original:Don't put the new filter into the bowl - carefully slide the filter on to the housing tube and then screw on the bowl.Don't expect the filter to last 30000 miles if you run dirty fuel in your truck, and drain the bowl regularly if you can't eliminate water contamination issues with the fuel you run in your truck.The Mopar filters are overpriced no matter where you buy them. However, I don't know of another filter with an equally good water separator. In my opinion, $100 - $200 over the life of the truck is cheap insurance against a potential high pressure pump failure.If you are changing the filter yourself, consider investing in the proper filter wrench, a ratchet/extension and gallon zip-lock bags.

To install on a 2017 Ram 1500 ecodiesel, buy the special wrench. Then, find your filter above the drive shaft in front of the spare tire. Using the wrench, unscrew the filter cap about 3 turns or until you think you can finish it by hand. Then, put the wrench away and grab a one gallon zip lock bag. Then, cover the filter assembly with the bag and unscrew it by hand, keeping the bag over the filter. Eventually, it will loosen enough that fuel will fall into the bag. About 1 quart will fall into the bag. Once the cap is fully unscrewed, carefully pull everything straight down. The filter will pull off a tube protruding down the middle of the filter. Pull it all off, zip the bag, slide out of the car, and the rest will be obvious. After you install the new one, turn the car to "run" for 60 seconds before starting it up to prime the fuel system. This is a 10 min job requiring only the special wrench and a wratchet attached to it. The filter itself was perfect.

Factory part, so it just works like it should. Fuel system repairs aren’t heap, don’t skimp on filters.

My go to product for the Ram Ecodiesel

Worked like it should and is oem product.

Perfect fit on 2016 RAM 1500 Limited Ecodiesel

Perfect fit and easy installation. I will buy again. This is a must for us that want to save money by replacing these ourselves.
