Sierra 18-0036 Diesel Bypass Oil Filter
Part Number: 18-0036 | SKU: 47-0036
Brand: Sierra
Product Type: Diesel Bypass Oil Filter
System: Engine Lubrication – Bypass Filtration Circuit
UPC: 808282291228
Overview
The Sierra 18-0036 is a bypass-type diesel engine oil filter designed for selected Volvo Penta marine diesel applications. Unlike a full-flow filter, a bypass filter draws a small portion of oil from the lubrication system and filters it to a finer level before returning it to the sump — providing an additional stage of contaminant removal alongside the main full-flow filter. The 18-0036 features a heavy-wall steel canister with a corrosion-resistant epoxy exterior and high-efficiency filtration media built to meet or exceed OEM filtration requirements.

Important: This is a bypass filter — it is not a substitute for the full-flow oil filter that may also be installed in the same engine. Both filters serve different roles in the lubrication system and must be replaced independently according to the engine manufacturer’s service schedule.

Service Interval
Replace according to the Volvo Penta engine’s scheduled oil and filter service interval. Regular bypass filter replacement helps control fine contaminants circulating through the lubrication system and extends the service life of the engine oil and full-flow filter. Always follow your engine manufacturer’s maintenance schedule.
Installation
- Shut down the engine and allow it to cool per the manufacturer’s service procedure.
- Remove the old bypass filter and confirm the sealing gasket came away with the filter — do not leave the old gasket on the mounting surface.
- Clean the filter mounting surface.
- Lightly coat the new filter gasket with clean engine oil.
- Install by hand and tighten per the Volvo Penta service specification — do not over-tighten.
- Start the engine and carefully inspect the filter area for leaks before returning to service.

Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The Sierra 18-0036 is the right choice for Volvo Penta diesel owners doing a complete oil service on engines equipped with a dual-filter lubrication system — one full-flow and one bypass filter. If your engine calls for both, both should be replaced at every service interval.
Common Questions: The most common issue is confusing this bypass filter with the full-flow filter on the same engine. Matching OEM number 3582733 or 22030852 is the most reliable way to confirm this is the correct bypass filter for your application. If you’re unsure whether your engine uses a bypass filter at all, check your Volvo Penta engine service manual or contact us with your engine model and serial number before ordering.
