Description
OE-grade cartridge oil filter that keeps warranties intact
Product Overview
The Ryco R2829P cartridge oil filter delivers original equipment quality filtration for modern engines using cartridge-style oil filter systems. Unlike traditional spin-on filters with disposable metal housings, this filter insert drops into your vehicle's existing permanent oil filter housing—reducing waste while maintaining the precise filtration standards required by today's tightly-toleranced engines. The 30-micron filtration rating captures the harmful contaminants that cause bearing wear, cylinder scoring, and premature engine failure, while allowing sufficient oil flow to maintain proper pressure across all operating conditions.
Ryco engineers these filters to meet or exceed original manufacturer specifications, meaning you're getting the same filtration performance as the dealer-supplied filter without the dealer price premium. This matters beyond just cost—using filters that meet OE specifications protects your new vehicle warranty, a critical consideration when you're maintaining a car still under manufacturer coverage. The quality internal filter media resists clogging even under extended service intervals, maintaining consistent oil flow as the filter loads with captured particles over thousands of kilometres.
Whether you're servicing European vehicles with cartridge filter systems, maintaining Japanese models that switched to filter inserts, or keeping fleet vehicles running with cost-effective OE-quality parts, the R2829P delivers reliable protection for engines where oil filtration isn't negotiable.

Features & Benefits
Cartridge Insert Design – Eliminates the metal canister waste of spin-on filters by using your vehicle's permanent housing. Modern European and many Asian manufacturers adopted this system to reduce environmental impact—you're only replacing the filter media that actually does the work, not throwing away a perfectly good metal housing every service.
30-Micron Filtration Rating – Captures particles down to 30 micrometres, the size threshold where contaminants start causing measurable engine wear. This filtration level balances thorough contaminant removal with maintaining adequate oil flow—over-filtering creates pressure drop issues, under-filtering allows damaging particles through to bearings and cam surfaces.
Anti-Clogging Filter Media – Ryco's internal filtration components resist premature blockage even as the filter accumulates captured particles. Quality filter media maintains structural integrity under oil pressure and temperature cycles, preventing media collapse or bypass valve activation that would send unfiltered oil through your engine.
OE Specification Compliance – Engineered to meet or exceed the original equipment manufacturer's filtration requirements. This isn't just marketing—using filters that match OE specifications is often explicitly required in new vehicle warranty documentation, and using substandard filters can void coverage if engine damage occurs.
Warranty Protection Maintained – Keeps your new vehicle warranty fully intact because the filter meets manufacturer specifications. When you're maintaining a $50,000+ vehicle still under factory coverage, using the right-spec filter isn't optional—it's protecting a significant financial asset from potential warranty denial.
Efficient Oil Flow Design – Maintains proper oil pressure and flow rate across the engine's operating range. The filter media's flow characteristics ensure adequate lubrication during cold starts when oil is thick, and sustained flow under high-temperature highway driving when oil thins out and flow rates increase.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my vehicle uses cartridge filters? If your oil filter housing is a permanent plastic or metal unit bolted to the engine with a replaceable filter element inside (rather than a spin-on canister you unscrew), you have a cartridge system. Check your owner's manual or existing filter—cartridge elements look like pleated paper cylinders without metal end caps.
Does using Ryco filters void my new car warranty? No—Australian Consumer Law and manufacturer warranty terms allow you to use any filter that meets OE specifications. Ryco filters are specifically engineered to meet or exceed those specs, protecting your warranty while avoiding dealer service pricing.
What's the service interval for this filter? Follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended oil change intervals as specified in your owner's manual or service book. Ryco filters are designed to handle standard OEM service intervals—don't extend intervals beyond manufacturer recommendations regardless of filter brand.
Can I reuse the filter housing seals? No—always replace the housing O-rings and seals with each filter change. Reusing old seals risks oil leaks, and new seals are typically included with quality filter purchases or available separately as housing seal kits for your specific vehicle.
Will this filter fit my specific vehicle model? The R2829P fits specific vehicle applications—verify fitment using Ryco's online catalogue, your parts supplier's fitment guide, or cross-reference with your vehicle's existing filter part number before purchasing. Different engines within the same vehicle model may use different filter part numbers.
