Oil and filter changed at 105k. Purchased at NAPA Auto Parts in Newport News for $51
Spring is commin so i made service of my "R" oil Millers XF 5W40 + with oil filter Mann'a new oil filter cover - old one broke during disassembing
Also did an oil change to Mobil 1 0/40 and a Mann filter. Replaced a nasty K & N air filter with a Mann.
My local Advance Auto has the factory Mann filters...
I would stick with MANN filters since they are an OE supplier.
filter is the nipple mk2 type that mounts to the fire wall next to the turbo.
Per VAG-COM, 5,7xx miles and 372 days on this filter (Mann as I posted above): Looks fine to me!
Wix and NapaGold (by Wix) filters of the champions. No filter or pressure issues for me since 1970.
I used the Mann 950/4 on my 1.8t and sent my oil out for analysis to Blackstone labs. They reported that the filtration level for that filter was superior.
I always use Mann as well with no issues.
