Looks like they have a 30 micron, but not a 3 that will fit. I am not a diesel expert, but I wonder what the correct range is for quality diesel filtration. Probably up to 10 but need to do some research

I have an email in to Andrew at TuneMyEuro asking why they go with a 1 micron filter.

I wonder what the OEM filter is from a Micron setting.

Thanks for the website. There is a 5 micron version.

Ooooh I missed the 5 micron option. Nice catch.

Let me know what Andrew says. If I can get a 5 micron I might actually install the TME filter kit I have on the shelf.

How do you like the setup and how was the fitment? I have a similar mod done to my VW TDI with a 1 micron Catipilar filter. It's awesome and I highly recommend it.

If you don’t install it please DM me if you decide to sell it, I might be interested in buying it from you.

I have not put the filter on yet. I need to figure out how to get the double threaded adapter to stay in the actual housing so you can easily remove the filter. Does anyone have any ideas on how to do that?

Just for info.
If your HPFP goes replacing pump and injectors is not enough. Metal shavings will get everywhere.
At the very minimum you would also have to replace all of the sensors and regulators.
Usually we also clean fuel tank, replace fuel lines (hoses and such) and also fuel rail.
Its best to just to take everything from donor if its possible to save on costs.
