Racingline aluminium oil filter housing for Audi S4/S5/RS4/RS5 B9

On Audi B9 engines, the small plastic oil filter housing is mounted on top of the engine. The factory housing does its job, but the plastic can become brittle over time due to age and heat. The Racingline aluminium oil filter housing is a direct replacement that eliminates both problems.

The housing is made from solid machined aluminium and has the same dimensions as the original part, including a factory-size hexagonal nut. You can therefore use your existing tools, while continuing to use standard OEM oil filters during servicing.

Benefits of the aluminium oil filter housing

• Durability: Solid aluminium will not crack, deform or become brittle like the original plastic housing.
• OEM fit: Made to the same dimensions as the factory part, making installation straightforward.
• Standard filter compatibility: Uses the same engine oil filter as the original housing, keeping servicing simple.
• Neat appearance: A clean-looking machined upgrade that suits the engine bay of high-performance vehicles.

Impact on the vehicle

This is not a power-increasing upgrade. It does, however, provide a stronger, longer-lasting part in a location where the original plastic housing is a known weak point. Replacing the plastic housing with an aluminium one is a sensible permanent upgrade for long-term vehicle use or a tidy engine bay.
