AFFINIA REPORTS INCREASED NET INCOME

FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND FIRST HALF OF 2007

ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, August 8, 2007 – Affinia Group Inc., a global leader in the on and off highway replacement products and service industry, today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Second Quarter

Net sales were $574 million for the quarter compared to $562 million for the same period in 2006.

Gross profit was $97 million as compared to $99 million for the same period in 2006. Gross profit for the second quarter was approximately 17 percent of sales, as compared to 18 percent for the same quarter in 2006. The decrease was largely a result of start-up costs associated with our facilities in Ukraine and Mexico and a new logistics program in the UK.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $79 million, an improvement of $6 million compared to the same period in 2006. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of sales improved to 14 percent.

Net income was $4 million which includes restructuring costs of $8.2 million net of tax, compared to a loss of $2 million, which includes restructuring costs of $5.9 million net of tax, for the same quarter in 2006.

As of June 30, 2007 Affinia had $44 million of cash and total long-term debt outstanding of $597 million. At June 30, 2007, Affinia had $10 million outstanding on its receivables securitization program. The company had no borrowing on its revolving credit facility, and was in compliance with all debt covenants.

“During the second quarter, we experienced lower than normal order fill rates at our brake business due to temporary capacity constraints we encountered as we expand our global manufacturing capabilities. While these lower order fill rates resulted in lower net sales, we expect fill rates will improve in the second half of the year as our new manufacturing capacity comes on line,” said Thomas Madden, Affinia’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

First Half 2007

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net sales were $1.08 billion as compared to $1.11 billion for the same period in 2006.

Gross profit improved to approximately 18 percent of sales, as compared to 17 percent for the same period in 2006.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $162 million, $7 million less than the first half of 2006. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 15 percent, unchanged from the first half of 2006.

Net income was $1 million which includes restructuring costs of $14.3 million net of tax, compared to a net loss of $8 million, which includes restructuring costs of $11.1 million net of tax, for the first half of 2006.

On a pre-tax basis, Affinia has recorded $80 million in restructuring costs to date. The company continues to expect that its total cash and non-cash costs associated with the comprehensive restructuring plan will be approximately $152 million.

“During the first half of 2007, we continued to implement our comprehensive restructuring program. We consolidated facilities, reduced costs, and grew our global manufacturing footprint. We started construction of a new manufacturing facility in Coahuila, Mexico, where we expect to begin production in the fourth quarter of this year. Also, our new facility in Ukraine began customer shipments in April. We are building a solid foundation for improvements in global sales and operating margins,” said Terry McCormack, Affinia’s President and Chief Executive Officer.
