Oil filter Mann or Bosch

I do every 3-5k miles, with Mann oil filter, both o rings, drain plug and washer, 7 quarts of 5w-40 liqui moly Leichtlauf High Tech oil.

I have used Mann Filters and Valvoline European 5w40 since new. I have gotten the OCI dialed in at 6500 miles.

I found a shelf full of Made in Germany Mann oil filters for my BMWs that is OE for the N55, N54, N52, N20 engine that were 80% off and ran up as $2.78 each. I cleared cleared the shelf full of those filters.. And i also found a new starter for my NA miata $11 that I was planning to replace . It was 95% off.

I replaced the Mann filter on my Golf 6. It was easy to install and the quality is excellent.

Use Mann. They are cheap too. OE.

Use Mann filters, they are the best.

I would never buy a cheapie oil filter for any car, especially a European car. I have always insisted on OEM or Bosch parts for our VW’s.

Depends on year and where you are located. I would never buy a cheap one, since a Bosch is 10 euros, and I'm not willing to take any chances for 5 euros or less, which is the price difference with a ridex or something like that.

I just did a oil change and with EFL 5W40 and use the BIG Mann filter like usuall and realise that the oil as already become a bit blackish...

bosch will do for a fester, for the more high performance or up market stuff i use mann or dealer and they aren’t that much more, i just had a 340 gt bmw in that ran the camshafts out of the head after 6k on factors oil and filter, the filter collapsed and sent paper fluff all round the engine so had to replace the cylinder head.
