Owner reviews for oil filter

AMSOil Signature oil and their filter, AMSOil trans fluid.

As long as the filter works well with synthetic oil. Some really cheap ones dont work well with synthetic like the red Purolator or Microgaurds. Bosch makes a great filter, I've used a few in my cars with store brand synthetic oil and oil stayed brown for a long time.

Also, you should think about running Mann or Bosch oil filters....maybe Wix. On start-up, your oil pressure will routinely go beyond 100 psi and worse if your oil pressure relief valve in the pump is getting debris behind it and scoring the piston in the bottom of the pump.

Original owner of a mk6 R here :wave: my R has ~50k miles on the clock. lightly modded (see sig) and I have never had any issues other than normal wear stuff. plugs/oil/filters u know. car still feels very close to new.

Next oil change, use a mann, hangst, wix, bosch oil fliter and 20w50 oil.

I also use Moble 1 0w-40 and a Mann filter.

Oil and filter changed at 105k. Purchased at NAPA Auto Parts in Newport News for $51

Mobil1 has been a 'gold standard' for a long time. I'd use it, along with a premium filter (Mobil1/etc.)

mine is like thick and black with mobile 1 and pure one filter

If you heard strange noises, then you must have been using FRAM
