I bought an OEM oil filter from the dealer for my 2006 3500 Sprinter. They gave me a box labeled A6111800009. The filter inside the new box has A1121840025 printed on top of it.
My old filter has black rubber end caps seals molded over both ends. The new filter (A6111800009) DOES NOT have these rubber end caps and will NOT FIT over the spike on the inside of my oil filter cap. My oil filter cap is P/N (A6111800210) and appears to be OEM.
Did they sell me the wrong oil filter, or am I missing why this new one will not slide over oil filter cap's internals? A lengthy web search shows the filter the dealer sold me (A6111800009) could fit???
Any info would be appreciated, it is 11:30pm East coast time and I have a bloodletted work van immobile in the driveway. First oil change since buying the rig.
