Wix everything. It's the only filter I use in mine and customer cars. I've probably used 3,000 + over the last 20 years

Pros: reliable, consistent quality

I try and buy MANN oil filters when I can. A mechanic told me that at least on the old Volvo I once owned (92’ Volvo 940 sedan) MANN oil filters have an extra oil passage within the filter and that they are superior. I would assume this is true for the rest of their products.

Pros: superior quality, extra oil passage

Vehicle: Volvo 940

Personally the only filter I’d use is Mann. K&N air filters suck definitely wouldn’t trust them with an oil filter.

Pros: Mann filter is good

Cons: K&N filters are bad

To me it looks like you have a cheap shitty non oe/oem filter installed. I'd change the filter to a good brand, (mann/mahle/oem bmw) and then clean the area with brake clean then let vehicle run and recheck. If it's leaking as bad as it looks like it is it will be easy to verify that you fixed it

Cons: cheap shitty filter
