2.0 tdi fuel filter sizing

[phoenix76x]

Hi, looking at doing a fuel filter change on my car but coming across different sizes??

One is showing a height of 170mm with a diameter of 77mm (crossland or Mann options)
and another one 153 and 93(Mahle, Bosch or Mann options) although this one does state **Mann filter will be different in size due to a modified design**
Prices are ranging form £5 to £30
any ideas which one I should go for? I don't really want to have to take it out to measure and put it back while ordered.

Hello, not sure what year / engine code you have, but looking at your car details it shows a 170/184 BHP figure.

Have a look at this link to the Mann site, the 170 version shows a being a PU825x, H - 136 / D - 78, and the 184 version shows as being a PU8014, H - 138 / D - 77 & 94 as it has a rubber bit on the top which is wider than the bottom.

Hope this helps !!

Thanks for your replies, mine is the 184 and looks like it would be the PU8014.
I followed the oem links and finally realised it was giving me the actual part number which I then googled and that verified the same.
Thanks again
