This is a Genuine OEM Fuel Filter, identified by the Hyundai/Kia MOBIS part number 31112-3Q500. The search results confirm this is the correct factory-original fuel filter element for the fuel pump assemblies used in the third-generation Hyundai Tucson/ix35 (LM) and the second-generation Kia Sportage (SL), specifically for the larger 2.0L and 2.4L Theta II Gasoline engines from the 2010–2015 model years.

As an in-tank filter, this component is located inside the fuel tank and is essential for reliable engine performance:

High-Pressure Fueling: Modern GDI and MPI engines operate at high fuel pressures. This filter ensures that the fuel pump and the ultra-fine nozzle tips of the injectors are protected from minute debris that could cause clogging or damage.
Assembly Integration: This filter is an integral part of the fuel pump module and often incorporates the pressure regulator and various seals. Using the Genuine MOBIS Part is paramount because it guarantees the precise fitment, correct filtration micron rating, and reliable pressure stability required by the ECU.
Cross-Platform Use: This part is common between the Tucson and Sportage due to their shared platform and engine architecture (Theta II), making the single part number valid for both vehicles in your query.
Fitment Assurance: The part number 31112-3Q500 is verified as the correct genuine in-tank fuel filter for the Hyundai Tucson IX35 2.0L/2.4L (2011) and the Kia Sportage SL 2.0L/2.4L (2011).
