Scania truck oil filters for R, S and P series
Scania's DC09, DC13 and DC16 engines are used across the R-series, S-series, P-series and G-series ranges and require oil filter elements that meet Scania's specification for bypass pressure and filtration efficiency. The DC13 is the most common Scania engine in UK fleets, fitted to the majority of R450, R500 and P410 models. Oil filter service intervals on Scania trucks running standard oil grades are typically 60,000-80,000 km, with extended intervals available using Scania-approved long-life lubricants.
Fleetguard and Donaldson supply OE-quality oil filter elements for Scania DC09, DC13 and DC16 engines. Scania uses an element-type oil filter on most modern engine configurations, where the housing remains on the engine and only the element is replaced. This produces less waste than spin-on filter replacement. Confirm the engine code and model year to select the correct element, as Scania has revised filter housing designs at several points across the production run.
Call our team with your Scania registration or engine code to confirm the correct oil filter element. UK nationwide delivery or same-day collection from our branches.
Frequently asked questions
What oil filter fits a Scania DC13 engine?
The Scania DC13 engine uses an element-type oil filter housed in a separate canister on the engine block. Fleetguard and Donaldson both supply compatible elements. The correct reference depends on the engine generation and any updates to the filter housing. Call our team with your chassis number or engine code to confirm the right element for your specific DC13 variant.
How often do Scania truck oil filters need replacing?
Standard oil service intervals on Scania R-series and P-series trucks are 60,000-80,000 km with conventional oil grades. Extended service intervals up to 150,000 km are available on some Scania Opticruise-equipped models using approved long-life lubricants, provided the filter is also rated for extended service.
Are Fleetguard oil filters suitable for Scania Next Gen trucks?
Yes. Fleetguard supplies oil filter elements for Scania Next Gen R-series and S-series applications. Confirm the engine variant and model year to ensure the correct element is selected. Scania's Next Gen range introduced in 2016 uses updated engine specifications compared to earlier production.
