That filter is just not right. Get an OEM filter. Hengst E300H D28
Haven’t had any issues with Hengst
Been driving these cars for almost 20 years and have yet to find a compelling reason to not use Mann or Mahle filters for everything, at times a Hengst here and there. Not one quality issue yet.
For filters I use Mahle, if I remember correct that is also the OEM supplier, but costs half what a BMW branded one costs.
The OEM filter is made by HENGST and is perfectly fine to use and doesn't cause oil pressure issues.
Tiguan owners, I can tell you from experience that you don't need to go under the car to install this! You have to reach for the boost sensor but everything can be done from up top!
I have several VAG cars and perform changes at 5k, Liquimoly kits from FCP Euro, always use a quality OE filter such as Hengst, save your records and any reasonable buyer will understand.
First of all, change the brand of the oil filter and do the same test again. My recommendation is Hengst filters, same quality with Mann and Bosch, made in the same factory in Slovakia.
and don't use store bought oil filters unless they sell Mahle or Mann.
Cap was really stuck when taking it off initially. Also required Some force to get back on. When I first just installed new filter I got yellow oil light, still not great. Also noticed oil coming from gap between ofh and cap. And a drip from the top socket end. So end conclusion, mahle oil filters suck
