Garage was 100% right in changing the filter, if they don't, your just putting old shit in new oil.

Always use BMW genuine oil or Liqui Moly, along with BMW OEM M oil filters, which are made in Austria and feature an ultra-fine mesh for superior filtering.
Pros: superior filtering
That filter is just not right. Get an OEM filter. Hengst E300H D28
Pros: OEM filter recommended
Cons: filter is not right
Part number: E300H D28
Haven’t had any issues with Hengst
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Audi S4
Been driving these cars for almost 20 years and have yet to find a compelling reason to not use Mann or Mahle filters for everything, at times a Hengst here and there. Not one quality issue yet.
Pros: no quality issues
The OEM filter is made by HENGST and is perfectly fine to use and doesn't cause oil pressure issues.
Pros: perfectly fine, no oil pressure issues
Another Hengst filter?
Something is wrong with this model. I hate dealership workshops because you get gouged.
I work for a dealership and have seen many Chinese filters collapse just like that...I've seen other Chinese filters get so bad that it starved the engine of oil pressure which lead to vanos faults among other things....I'd always go for bmw oil filters, that's not something I'd be willing to "experiment" with
Pros: BMW filters are reliable
Cons: Chinese filters are unreliable
