It filters diesel fuel before it reaches the injection pump and injectors, removing water and particulates that can cause injector failure and pump damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What John Deere models does the RE525561 filter fit?
The RE525561 fuel filter assembly fits John Deere 5E series (5045E, 5050E, 5075E, 5090E) and 6J series (6090J, 6110J) tractors. It is the primary fuel filter in the fuel system and should be replaced according to the service schedule.
How often should I replace the RE525561 fuel filter?
John Deere recommends replacing the fuel filter every 500 hours or annually, whichever comes first. In Malaysian conditions with higher humidity and potential fuel contamination, we recommend more frequent replacement — every 250–300 hours for optimal injector protection.
Does the RE525561 assembly include the filter element?
Yes, the RE525561 is a complete fuel filter assembly including the filter head and element. If you only need a replacement element, check your model — some use a separate element part number. We can advise based on your tractor serial number.
Can I use an aftermarket filter instead of genuine John Deere?
Yes, high-quality aftermarket filters from brands like Donaldson and Baldwin meet or exceed OEM specifications at 30–50% lower cost. For tractors under warranty, genuine John Deere is recommended. For older machines, aftermarket is a proven cost-effective alternative.
How do you ship the RE525561 within Malaysia?
We ship nationwide via courier. West Malaysia: 1–2 working days. East Malaysia (Sabah, Sarawak): 3–5 working days. Urgent orders can be dispatched via express service at no additional cost for emergency breakdowns.
