The oil module houses the filter and heat exchanger in its diecast aluminium body. This allows filtration to be carried out by a cartridge equipped with cellulose media from the FormulaUFI. CELL family, while thermal management is achieved by the exchanger. The supplied filter cartridge is also available to the aftermarket in the UFI (part number 25.267.00) and SOFIMA (part number S 5267 PE) spare parts catalogues. And thanks to the module’s design, its replacement is particularly easy. The filter itself features several innovations, including the internal seal between the two sides of the filter, the ‘dirty’ side where the lubricant to be filtered arrives, and the ‘clean’ side downstream of the filter media. This required specific development work to define its geometry and the material needed. The filter also meets particularly stringent capacity and service-life requirements, requiring optimisation of the choice of filter media and geometry. The result is 99% efficient for particles larger than 40 microns, while its retention capacity allows for a replacement interval of 40,000km. Carlyle Tools has announced two new additions to its specialist tools range, catering to both cars and light vans: the CSACTS34 Self-Adjusting Clutch (SAC) Tool Set and the CUNIVCAT Universal Clutch Alignment Tool.

The electrophoretic BlackStar coating on the friction face burns off during braking, while it remains on the top hat and outer rim, providing a durable layer of protection against corrosion and eliminating the need for cleaning before installation. The coating is designed to withstand over 120 hours of salt spray exposure, supporting a longer service life in demanding conditions such as the cold, wet UK winters. Plus, the range combines corrosion-resistant brake discs with ECE-R90approved brake pads and is supported by a 24-month / 24,000mile warranty that also includes wear-and-tear cover. Where applicable, the pads include OE-matched chamfers and fitting accessories to support straightforward installation and consistent braking performance.
