It isn't sold anymore. If you search "cat 0750 filter adapter" there are quite a few different options. You may have to use a creative method to make it all come together but it can be done. Amazon sells a cheap cat filter adapter too.
yeah same process to prime it. there is an intank lift pump still which will circulate fuel through the filter and CP3 inlet
Ok so here is an update of my auxiliary pump removal and cat filter install, I couldn’t find a filter base that would bolt to any part of the engine bay, all the ones I found where meant to hold the actual filter with hose clamps instead of the base which deceives the idea of the screw in filter. I saw a YouTube video of ( josh’s jetta’s) and did the same thing, I went with just a generic filter base from Amazon, I cut the top screw hole of it to make it flat and then painted black, enlarged the 2 square holes on the metal bracket on top of the headlight and bolted the filter housing to it, for the fuel lines I went a different route from the video I remade my fuel lines so I could run the line from the tank to the filter through the back of the coolant reservoir then made a short line from filter to cp3 pump and also remade the return line to the tank and held it to the coolant line with some 6an dual line clamps for a cleaner look to finish I did some trimming to the engine cover to clear the line from filter to cp3 pump. Everything seems to be working fine so far and I spent less than $100 in all the parts, now there is enough space in there to unscrew your filter and install a new one with one hand in no time.
Looks great! Should be running nice now without the aux pump and the new line routing.Ok so here is an update of my auxiliary pump removal and cat filter install, I couldn’t find a filter base that would bolt to any part of the engine bay, all the ones I found where meant to hold the actual filter with hose clamps instead of the base which deceives the idea of the screw in filter.

Here is a few pictures of the installation
Tip...if you are going to use that style filter, you can get a CLEAR holder that holds a slightly shorter filter that has a drain on it...makes it easier to monitor for moisture, color and you can drain a few drops of water that collects in it to extend the filter life.
Funny - my old Peugeot 504 diesel use to have a clear glass filter bowl with a manual priming pump on the top of the aluminum housing. And yes, a thumbscrew water drain at the bottom...
Funny thing on my A3 i replaced that screen housing during install because I broke the old one. Car still had trouble with the p0087. Only thing that has fixed it is the fuel line routing. Very interesting though.Hey guys,
there has been a million posts about P0087 and now I know why, please check this part on your car and make sure you clean it really good. my JSW dont have that part anymore. my cp3 kit are 2micron designed kit, he knew what was coming.

That part number does show as a replacement, but why not just buy the CP3 and regulator valve directly from United Diesel? They have good service and prices.
Because I already have the CP3 pump, And I have gone my own route with the fitment of the pump by re-machining the alternator/pump bracket instead of using the spacer/adapter so I am too far gone to change my mind and buy a kit now
You can add me to the list. 2013 Jetta Vi CJAA CP3 swapped yesterday with Whitbread kit.
I installed one on a 2015 Passat CVCA.
I don't think that list has been updated in a long time, the guy who posted it hasn't been online since 2023.
O well.Will do. I still have to sort out the oil lipstick. May move the hp line to the other outlet and rebend it, but will post up when done.
look at my post for idea's about the dipstick. washers + a longer bolt
Got it. My dipstick appears to not line up when pulled forward, but may be an illusion. I am going to get a bolt today and see if i can machine a spacer to fill the gap. I know one thing, my car seems to run smoother all across the rpm range, compared to the cp4. I am MR tuned SOF, and it is amazing in stock 1 and 2. It just feels like it should, imo. I can not express my gratitude enough to the pioneers like 2micron, and the profidiesel guys across the pond, and everyone who has done the tough work of fixing the mess that the EPA pushed VW into bastardizing a good vehicle.
Yes, the across the pond comment was related to my friends at Profi Diesel. Amazing bunch of guys, doing some crazy builds, and pioneering some awesome products.
