Oil filter Mann or MOTUL

Mann Oil filter

I went from 20w60 to 10w50 and now I don’t get that cold start rattle. If you’re in a super cold part of the world I’d go for a 10w or 5w oil, with a higher 2nd number for good viscosity for an engine @170,xxx kilometres. Also, make sure you run quality oil filters, like Mann filters as the cheaper filters seem to not have very good quality anti-drainback check valves in them.

Pros: no cold start rattle
Cons: metallic rattle sound (with 20w60)
Mileage: 170000 km

Mann Oil filter

Got a workshop quote me for engine oil change $550. I do it myself with liquid moly and Mann oil filter cost me $200.

It's fun DIY your car, changing engine oil isn't too difficult , just learn from YouTube.

And it's only takes 30 mins to do it.

Pros: fun DIY, not difficult
Cons: workshop quote expensive

Mann Oil filter

Sure, VW does not make oil or filters, but it's easy to find out who makes those products for VW. VW has a lot riding on what they recommend a lot more than NAPA. Is there any reason why you trust NAPA vs VW? Do yourself a favor, get an OEM filter and an oil that passes VW specs. MANN, Hengst, and Mahle and the common OEM filters [in that order].

Pros: OEM filters recommended
Cons: NAPA not trusted

Changed the oil, and filter this summer. All well and good before. After a little while, a screeching sound from the oil filter housing. Collapsed filter? Nope. Replaced it with another new filter and same issue once again. On the slightest rev the sound is gone. No more Mann for me…

Cons: screeching sound, filter collapse
Vehicle: BMW
