Oil filter Mann or Wix

Wix filters are high quality and affordable, usually get those on amazon.

I use a good filter I use Wix XP.

Also, I've seen a lot of the VW mechanics on yt using Mann filters when doing oil changes. Considering the one I bought from VW was like $25, and rockauto has the Mann ones for like $8, that's what I plan on using in the future.

You can find Mobil 1 esp at most local car parts stores and you won’t have to ship. 0w30 or 5w30, double check it’s VW 507.00 on the back. I think my advanced auto parts down the street had the correct Mann oil filter in stock too.

Oil changes are simple, 7 quarts of Mobil 1 ESP X2 oil, quality filter - I like Wix.

Swapped the oil filter with the recommended Wix oil filter

It is important to follow the service intervals and use quality stuff. I use motul for fluids and usually buy mann filters.

I use 5W-30 Mobil 1 synthetic oil in it with Wix filters.

The car runs smoother, burns less oil, idle feels quieter, oil comes out less dirty and overall, the car just feels better.

I use Mann oil filter. Possibly a bypass in them when pressure exceeds a certain amount???? Like when the engine is cold, 100+ psi???

The five has been known to not fill up with oil upon starting due to the one way valve At the top to create a bubble. It is rare but has happened. The five was always difficult to fill because you had to fill the small holes instead of the center.
