Oil filter Mahle or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
I have it, and the car is alot more smooth. Good filter.
Pros: car is more smooth
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Part number: 068 115 561B
I have been running the larger filter for about 10,000 miles now- haven't had a bypass valve issue. I am using the same filter as a an audi/VW V6 30 valve engine. I do not know if that is the same as the diesel one though But- 62,000 miles so far, no valve lifter noise yet!
Pros: no bypass valve issue, no valve lifter noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 16093 km
Anyhow I would be interested in going longer drain interval, so I think that I will check out these new products Mobil is offering. Although I think the Mahle filter that has been in use is filtering well enough and the price is right at $5.
Pros: filtering well, price right
fellas, don't forget that there is a new bigger 1.8T filter issued by VW. I got one for my 2.0 and this thing is huge. I assume it will filter the same but it will flow better as the filtering components are much bigger. Also the new filters will retain more oil in the system which is a good thing!
Pros: flows better, retains more oil

The VW filter is a good quality filter.

I just bought 6 MAHLE filters for my 8v, at what I think is a damn good price. The guy I bought them from (a fellow Digifanter) says this brand is the OEM filters of the new VW/AUDI/SEAT cars in europe.
Pros: good price, OEM filters
