I would recommend a MANN oil filter. They build the ones VW sells you over the counter.
I believe over time, the deposits will be less. The bottom of the oil pan is the lowest point of the engine. The second point is the drain plug. Between these two points the oil/residue/sludge/etc never gets removed. As many oil pans that I've seen removed, there is always a fine layer of 'stuff'.
Pracuję przy niemieckich samochodach od ponad 40 lat. Wiem, co działa, a co nie. Czy chciałbyś podzielić się swoją opinią na temat tego, dlaczego większość [jeśli nie wszystkie] niemieckich firm samochodowych polega na tak zwanych „gorszych” produktach? Niestety, opinie takie jak Twoja opierają się na opiniach, a nie na faktach. Gdyby były tak gorsze, jak mówisz, typowy niemiecki silnik nie przetrwałby okresu gwarancyjnego.
installed a Mann filter. torqued the filter housing and noted the paint dot on the filter was tightened to the same location as before i started.
So my car has 86k on the clock and its an Edition 30 GLI. Great car by the way. I service it every 5k with Mobil 1 0W-40 Euro Formula (502.00 spec) with a MANN filter.
The 30 is the way to go. It's better in most every way and is not that much more. They use a better filter media and seals for a longer service life.
Mann & Mahle filters aren't all that expensive and since needing them won't be a surprise type event; buying them can be scheduled prior to need.
Personally I run synthetic oil 7000 miles(I have had it tested at Blackstone labs and the results show it's still good at that time) before I change it and I change it and the filter(very important) at that time.
I'd like to add that the oil pressure appeared normal after installing the Mobile 1 filter. The Mobile 1 filter is about half an inch longer than the RE filter, and I read that different sized oil filters can cause the oil pressure to drop, but my indicator was not lit during any of my test riding.
mine is like thick and black with mobile 1 and pure one filter
