Oil filter Mann or Wix

I’ve been using 5w30 Castrol full advanced synthetic, with a wix oil filter for all seasons and have had 0 issues.

The filter I got from the dealer was a Volkswagen/Mann filter.

I was getting the low oil pressure warning on my 2012 Passat. I changed the oil, dropped the oil pan and cleaned it and the pickup tube. They were already in really good shape. I changed the oil filter too of course. Anyway the light isn't coming on at all now.

and get a Wix filter or some mid level filter. dont buy the cheapest one out there. 9-15 dollars is about how much you want to spend on a filter. But it works great.

I use Mobil One in all my cars (15k stuff) but still change it at 5k - it’s pretty black by then - I also use WIX oil filter that is rated one of the best

I've used the Mann HU 719/6X filter for our Mk5 2.5L engines for more than a decade, without issues. Personally I'd shy away from Fram, at least for these cars -- I've heard bad things about failures.

The Mann its OE and has been working fine for years now.

Mann, or Hengst filters are usually what I use, I don't have anything bad to say about them. Quality filters.

Mann, Mahle and Hengst are OE. Mann is my personal choice.

Now with my '06 Mini R53 which is canister style, I mostly use Mann because I like the design better than OE.
