Component Details
Diesel CRDi System: For the 2.5L Common Rail Diesel engine, this filter is a high-demand component. It serves as the primary barrier against microscopic particles and, more importantly, separates water from the diesel fuel to prevent damage to the high-pressure fuel pump and injectors.
"With Sensor" Feature: This part number refers to the complete filter canister that is designed to be fitted with the Water-in-Fuel (WIF) Sensor at the bottom (or sometimes includes the sensor itself, depending on the supplier's packaging). The WIF sensor is critical for alerting the driver if water separation is failing or if excessive water has collected, demanding immediate drainage or filter replacement.
Filter Type: This is typically a Spin-on Filter—a sealed metal canister that screws onto the filter head in the engine bay. It is a highly efficient filter designed for the high pressures and cleanliness requirements of the CRDi system.
Genuine Quality: As a GENUINE PART (indicated by "GENUINE MALL" which is a vendor for Genuine parts), the 31922-3E10A guarantees the correct filter media specifications, thread size, and proper sensor port interface for immediate installation and reliable performance in your Kia Sorento.
Fitment Assurance: The part number 31922-3E10A is verified as the correct genuine Diesel Fuel Filter with Sensor Port for the Kia Sorento I (BL/JC Chassis) 2.5L CRDi Diesel Engine (2002–2007).
