I've also used mann filters for oil before, no issues
I would recommend only OE VW or Mann filters with a VW 502 oil, preferably 5W40.
I used that exact oil with a Mann filter on my 2013 Jetta SE for every oil change. Just sold it a couple months ago with 178k miles on it with 0 serious problems the 10 years I owned it
Also, the filter is just as important as the oil, use an OEM filter or a Mann Filter and use a new drain plug while you're at it.
I'd go with the OEM Mazda Oil Filters but any high quality synthetic 0w20 will work fine.
Use mann Mahle or hengst filters.
This time I'm using Mannol fully synthetic and a Mann filter, and as I need 8 litres of oil, it makes sense financially as it's very reasonably priced.
I have an oil extractor that cost me $75 and it works great. Give it a few Pumps and let it do the job. For a 2.0t I’d get liqui moly with a Mann filter all for about $45.
I've only ever used mann, I'm sure they both work! I'm going to stick with what I know is perfect though.
I always thought the filter caught all of that stuff, I mean yea it got the bigger pieces but I wasn't expecting it to let all of that fine stuff through. Honestly makes me question how good the OEM Mann filters really are?
