Oil filter K&N or Hengst

What I usually order with K&n performance oil filter.

I've used AMSOIL Signature in my recent change in my 3.8 with a K&N Filter. I gotta say it's pretty damn good. Engine cranks right up and feels so much more smoother.

Personally i use these:

Oil filter is a 204-1 so for £8 it's worth buying K&N

And as for oil i use Shell Ultra 4T 10W40 (Fully synthetic). I use this in all my bikes as i find it really enduring and reasonably priced if you know where to look.

I ordered from ECS Tuning - Got 5 qts of Mobil 1 ESP, oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, DSG filter, magnetic oil drain plug for $100 shipped. All Hengst or Mann filters.

I go for K&N. No complaints. Also, they have that nut on the end, so you can wrench it off.

I've been running Castrol 5w40 in my cars for years. Started in my '99 Beetle 2.0 and now my 1.8T GTI. I use the K&N filter but I get the one for the Passat since its larger.

Been doing it myself with full synthetic and k&n performance filters every 3k ever since.

I'm still running my K&N oil filter, though I've got a Mahle that I ordered along with the ABA pump.

since vw started using the synthetic material i am very fond of using oem. ive never seen the synthetic material deteriorate or crush in the housing between oil changes. ive also seen the plastic on those types of hengst filters break apart and that scares me to use.

Mine was my oil filter! I used a k&n because they come with a oil change reminder sticker. Leaked like mad.
