Oil filter Hengst or OEM FORD
The OEM filter is made by HENGST and is perfectly fine to use and doesn't cause oil pressure issues.
OEM ford filter will be better then you will get at most oil changes spots and the same if you pay the dealership
I was having the same noise on cold startup with an aftermarket filter and switched back to the fomoco filter and it went away. Something to do with a drain valve in the filter. The ford one is silicone and some of the aftermarket ones arent and it can cause problems.
I personally use the Ford motorcraft OEM filters in the largest size that fits cleanly with a similar bypass pressure.
Every 5000 miles, it's time for 16 quarts of oil and a filter the approximate size of a Nalgene bottle.
Tiguan owners, I can tell you from experience that you don't need to go under the car to install this! You have to reach for the boost sensor but everything can be done from up top!
I have several VAG cars and perform changes at 5k, Liquimoly kits from FCP Euro, always use a quality OE filter such as Hengst, save your records and any reasonable buyer will understand.
Another Hengst filter?
I double gasketed some dude\u2019s oil filter on his Crown Vic and got to enjoy the new experience of swinging an engine into that car for free
But I've seen this too, with the genuine Hengst filters
