I just go to the amsoil website and get the oil that they suggest, I've taken cars well over 200k with that advice. Don't overthink it. If you don't want to use amsoil for the oil, at least see if they have a low micron oil filter.
use Mann filters from now on, can’t go wrong with them.
I use Amsoil Signature Series & OEM filter.
Just change it every 6,000km and you’ll be good. Use synthetic, but brand isn’t as important as proper drain intervals.
Mann aftermarket filters are OEM equivalent (they make the OEM filters for most Audis)
That was the same response when I bought my first XJ oil filter. Coming from VR6 maintenance, it felt like it was free. I think it was like $3 vs $25 for the OEM VW Mann one.
I'll echo others that I've always used the Mann HU 925/4x and they've never given me any trouble for fitment or function.
I, along with other owners have tried many oil filters, but the MANN ones seem to be the best.
I've been using Mann filters, have been to last 9 years.
Wrong filter? 2002 r53 S used Mann HU 815 /2x
I can also attest, Mann filter only. I have no idea why, I believe my first motor seized due to collapsed oil filter
