Product quality without compromise

High-quality materials and meticulous workmanship are crucial. In addition, precise coordination of the filtration properties is essential, as they influence each other and must be optimally matched for excellent filtration performance.

Commercial vehicle filters

Commercial vehicle filters

Commercial vehicle operation is uncompromisingly geared towards the requirements of reliability and profitability – the risk of vehicle failure should be minimized. To protect the injection system and other engine components, the Bosch filter range is designed for all common commercial vehicle and engine types. In the area of engine management, Bosch offers diesel fuel filters, diesel water separators, coolant filters, air filters, oil filters, oil mist separators and centrifugal oil filters.

Cabin filters for hybrid and electric vehicles (HEV/EV)

Cabin filters for hybrid and electric vehicles

Bosch offers cabin filters for over 93% of electric and hybrid vehicles in Europe. This opens up new revenue opportunities for workshops as the number of registered electric vehicles is dynamically increasing.

Why should filters be changed regularly?

Cabin filter

Cabin filter

Possible consequences of a clogged filter:

  • Poorer visibility due to misted-up windows, therefore reduced safety
  • Increased concentration of pollutants in the vehicle
  • Allergic reactions, e.g. sneezing
  • Limited function of the air conditioning system due to deposits on the evaporator

Bosch recommends changing the cabin air filter every 15,000 kilometers or once a year. The vehicle manufacturer's specifications must also be observed.

Fuel filter

Possible consequences of a clogged filter:

  • Loss of engine performance up to engine standstill
  • Impairment of the fuel supply
  • Impairment of the performance of the fuel pump, including short circuits
  • Internal corrosion of engine components with diesel fuel

Oil filter

Possible consequences of a clogged filter:

  • Premature engine wear and even engine damage
  • Reduced engine performance
  • Increased oil consumption

The oil filter should always be changed when changing the oil.

Air filter

Air filter

Possible consequences of a clogged filter:

  • Increased fuel consumption
  • Loss of engine power
  • Increased pollutant emissions

To burn one liter of fuel, the engine needs 10,000 liters of clean air. The air filter is responsible for cleaning the air. 

Production began in Stuttgart in 1930

  • Bosch fuel filter from 1930.
    Bosch fuel filters, which went into production in 1930, initially solved one problem in particular: they protected the protected diesel – and later on also gasoline – injection components against contaminants and impurities.
  • Fuel filter from Bosch from 1936
    Although even the first fuel filters from Bosch were already highly elaborate, they had to be cleaned quite often. The breakthrough was achieved in 1936, when Bosch first used a special paper as filter medium. In its further developed form, this material is still widely used today due to its high cleaning efficiency.
  • Modern fuel filters from Bosch
    Modern fuel filters protect the injection system. They reliably remove particles and, in the case of diesel, water from the fuel and support optimum engine performance.
