Owner reviews for oil filter
Been using K&N filters on my 1.8t's with Royal Purple Oil. The two combined seems to leave very little to almost no build up of metal particles on my magnetic drain plug.
I've been using them for over 10 years and my motor runs like a top.
I got a Hengst Oil filter and two Mann Oil filters. I prefer to use K&N Oil filters. Right now I'm using a Fram.
A K & n oil filter is a good filter 2 use. I work at a car dealership and checking out the quality the k&n vs oem, the k&n is a better filter. I usually use them or mobile one on my car.
Just changed the oil in my 08 Jetta. went to Advance Auto parts and picked up 6 quarts of Mobile 1 0W 40 and a Fram oil filter.
I use a K & N passat filter. Its the same (I think) you get the added oil capacity.
I run AMSoil European Blend (specifically for VW,AUDI, BMW,) and the filter as well. I change my oil around 4-5K depending on my driving during that time. My oil always comes out slightly 'browned' .... never dark.
Bosch 72174 = BIG
Oil filter Mann/Mahle NOT Fram... much better quality than fram.
