Fel-Pro™ Expands Leak Repair Lineup to Take on Top-of-Engine Oil Leaks

PR Newswire

New Oil Filter Housing Assemblies and Oil Filter and Cap Sets give technicians faster, more reliable fixes for two common repairs

SKOKIE, Ill., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DRiV, a global aftermarket solutions leader, is taking on one of the most common reasons vehicles end up in the service bay, broadening its Fel-Pro leak repair portfolio with Oil Filter and Cap Sets and Oil Filter Housing Assemblies. Both address frequent top-of-engine oil leaks and are engineered to help technicians complete repairs with confidence while helping prevent the leaks that can occur as seals, housings and gaskets wear over time. Each solution is designed to make the technician’s job easier and help get the repair right the first time.

Fel-Pro expands its leak repair portfolio with new Oil Filter and Cap Sets and Oil Filter Housing Assemblies, engineered to simplify repairs, save technician time and deliver reliable sealing performance.

Top-of-engine leaks are common, but the repairs behind them aren’t the same. Fel-Pro built each line to save time in a different way.

“Technicians lose real time chasing parts on a leak repair, and customers need confidence that the fix will hold up once the vehicle leaves the shop,” said Joseph Saoud, vice president and general manager, U.S. and Canada, DRiV. “We built these two lines to take the guesswork out of the repair. Whether a technician is replacing a full housing or just a filter and cap, the goal is the same: the right parts in one box and a dependable, leak-free repair they can trust.”

Oil Filter and Cap Sets — a hassle-free, all-in-one repair kit:

  • Bundles the filter, cap and O-ring in a single kit, eliminating the need to source parts separately or reuse a brittle plastic cap.
  • High-quality O-ring pre-installed in the cap for leak-free operation and consistent performance.

Oil Filter Housing Assemblies — a fully loaded, pre-assembled drop-in solution:

  • Arrives ready to install, so technicians don’t piece components together or source separate seals and sensors.
  • Includes the oil filter and cap, a pre-installed oil temperature sensor*, a pre-installed oil pressure sensor** and a premium Fel-Pro intake manifold gasket.
  • Superior Fel-Pro seal from premium proprietary intake manifold gaskets and oil filter housing gaskets.

Oil Filter Housing Assembly Part Number OFHA1001 Solves for a Common Repair
The Oil Filter Housing Assembly line launches with OFHA1001, targeting one of the most common oil leak repairs in service today: the failure-prone OEM oil filter housing and integrated oil cooler on the Pentastar 3.6L V6 engine that often warps and cracks under repeated under hood heat cycling. Because that platform spans millions of vehicles on the road, it represents an immediate, high-volume opportunity for shops. OFHA1001 answers the problem with durable aluminum construction and trusted Fel-Pro sealing components, delivering reliable performance and confidence in the repair.

Backed by Fel-Pro Sealing Performance & Installer’s Advantage
These additions extend a sealing reputation technicians already rely on. Fel-Pro holds more than 70% of the U.S. sealing market, and that engineering depth is reflected in every component of these new assemblies and kits. The two lines are part of the Installer’s Advantage program, a curated lineup of more than 5,000 DRiV parts built to solve the repairs that frustrate technicians most. These are high-quality parts from industry-leading brands, engineered for reliable performance and simpler repairs across a wide range of domestic and import vehicles.

Both product lines are now available.

*Pre-installed oil pressure sensor for 2011–2016 model years only; remove for 2017–2026 model years and replace with original sensor

**Pre-installed oil temperature sensor for 2011-2016 model years only; remove for 2017-2026 model years and replace with plug included in box.
