Air filter Mann or Wix

I bought Mann as my first and Hengst as my second, Mann all day.

The mann is or as someone else said, no real problems using that.

Personally I prefer the mann frecious plus filters due to annoying allergies. Though they are a huge pia to get for whatever reason so I am currently using a cortero filter. Good luck so far

Both are good for oil and air filters. But definitely get charcoal. Made a huge difference for a few more dollars on something you don't change often.

Mann is OE manufacture. When I worked at VW/Audi, our parts department would actually sell those Mann as oe. That’s what customers would get during their 20k services.

Mann filters have always been my go-to for my VWs and they've never let me down.

Well I'm glad I use Wix filters after seeing this test for my engine air and cabin air filter.

Project Farm has some really good reviews - and for most people, the Wix is the best daily driver. The K&N it seems letting in more particles may not be the hearsay and this does make a case for this being a legitimate concern.

Truly worried? Just use a simple (read: OE / OE supplier, like Mann or Mahle) dry paper filter.

In the past week I've replaced the Timing Belt, Tensioner, Water Pump, flushed the coolant and installed a new Mann Air Filter.

If you get the Mann C 36 188 /1 , it will have the foam.

If you get a Mann filter, it won't have it.
