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.
In the past week I've replaced the Timing Belt, Tensioner, Water Pump, flushed the coolant and installed a new Mann Air Filter.
Per VAG-COM, 5,7xx miles and 372 days on this filter (Mann as I posted above): Looks fine to me!
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.
My g/f and I use Mann filters in both our GTIs and never had any issues.
The Mann filter isn't a cheap filter in a quality way. They make the OEM filter. It's the one you want
