Hey guys, this is my first technical post so bear with me. I've searched and have found conflicting information as far as correct filter for my VIN. I was going to replace the fuel filter in my car today and the fuel filter I bought based on VIN at the local VW dealer yielded me P/N 1K0127434A (large hole at both ends). My car's production date is 06/10, and from everything that I have found that is the correct P/N.
Based on the info from:
http://www.myturbodiesel.com/1000q/a5/2009-2010-VW-TDI-fuel-filter.htm
I have canister type #3 as shown in the link above which suggests that I should be using P/N 1K0127434B (1 small hole on bottom), however the build date tells me to use P/N 1K0127434A. What gives, which is the correct filter? I wanted to be sure before I pop the canister open to find that I have the wrong filter....
Thanks in advance for the help!
Jason
