I just recently purchased a mahle oil filter and it is made in austria, good to hear good quality stuff is still available after mann has let me down.
My VW has done fine with Fram PH 3569 oil filters for the last 125K miles and runs fine now with no anticipated engine problems. Oil burning is minimal with no added oil needed between changes at 3333 miles.
I have used Fram filters for more than 40 years and have NEVER had a problem with them...used the 2870 on my wife's Passat for 8 years...works great
i've used the fram 2870a for many years(i had a '79,'84,and '99)in all of my 4cyl VW's-i never had a problem with them.
I used this filter for continuously my 83 Audi coupe. i did 4 oil changes a year until she finally died back in January. I had this car for 8 years 160 000km. Never once did I have any sort of oil-related problem.
I use the M1-301 as well, the added capacity from the oversized filter is just nice for peace of mind. It's a PITA to get in and out though.
i used mobil 1 301 filter in my passat for a year never has black oil oh ya my motor has over 200k on it with 15psi on it. mobil 1 is good stuff
My last car ran bosch filters and mobil 1 5w30. the guts were spotless. for my break in period on the new one i used mobil 1 filter. for probably longer than i should have. filtered very well. oil had very little specks in it.
Mobil 1 0w40 in summer, 5w30 in winter, M1-205 filter all the time, oil is never black when I drain it after 4-5k miles
Get a dealer filter, or Mahle or something, don't get a Fram. I use a Fram on my 66 Mustang 289, but not on my 1.8T.
