Oil filter Mann or AC DELCO

I had the blinky oil light at warm idle and random oil pressure readings. ... Swapped out to a Mann filter, and 20w-50 Mobil1 High Millage, the problem went away.

replaced in the last month: power steering rack power steering pump serp belt oil pressure sending unit rotors and pads suspension: KW V2 coils (1200mi) have stock also wheels: Rotiform BLQ machined 19x8.5

replace the oil filter with a German oil filter (Mann, Mahle, Kenelt(sp?)), check the air filter, replace if dirty

i use nothing but TOTAL oil and MANN filters straight from germany how can u go wrong and BTW for all you guys that use mobil 1 its horrible for dub motors you might as well be using exxon brand oil!

I only use Mann, Mahle, Hengst

Bosch and Mann would be the original VW suppliers so you can source them cheaper .

The /30 is rated for 30,000 Km the older /5 was rated for 10,000 Km /30 uses synthetic fibers for longer lasting oil changes. /5 uses Paper fiber that does not last more than 10K. If you plan on changing your oil before 10,000Km you are ok using either one. I used to change my oil every 15,000 KM (back in 1993) using old /5 filter. I changed the filter half way through at 7000Km. Now with the new /30 filter I go full 15K on same oil filter.

My experience is similar - 231,500 km (146k miles) on my VR6, has run excellent, M1 10w30 and Mann filters about every 7500km. No internal work done on it.

I personally used the small Mann filter for 100k miles and now am using the bosch.

Filters, I'm parcial towards Mann products, if you can find them. Never a problem with Wix.
