Oil filter Mann or Bosch

double check the oil filter: stick with the brand name MANN or oem. make sure that you put some oil on the rubber gasket before you re install the filter housing to make sure you have a complete seal. also put some fresh oil in the filter housing that way you do not starve your motor of oil when you start it up.

I only use Mann oil filters.

Bosch oil filters. I used them to desludge 2 engines, and it CONSTANTLY keeps pulling more and more out. Only problem, they are black, so leak detection can be difficult if its in a tight spot.

VW uses castrol syn. 5w-40. With their filter, I think manufactured by Mann. I've been using that but just recently switched to lubro moly 5w-40 with a Mann filter

I use Full Synth Royal Purple and a Bosch filter. I drive a 2002 S2K and the RP oil keeps the TCT noise in check.

To change oil for a 2011 VW golf, you do need a special oil filter wrench (14 Points, 74mm),as the new german cars are using a cartridge type oil filter. I got mine from ebay, made of cast aluminium, works like a charm.

royal purple, amsoil, k&N, mobil 1 extended, bosch long disance are good for more like 25k or 35k miles

As far as oil filters go, if things haven't changed since I sold my old Jetta, Fram, K&N and possibly others all sell the same filter made by Mann. They are literally identical to the Mann and original VW filters. Buy which ever one you can find for cheap.

5w50 castrol syntec and bosch filters what ever's on sale.

in my ABA im running MANN filter and just changed to Royal Purple 15w40. car LOVES IT, easily running its best since i rebuilt the motor.
