You may be able to find the FRAM TITANIUM FS11784 at Advance Auto.
I imagine you are either going to have to order it or choose the Extra Guard CH11784.
Why not go to NAPA and pick up a rebranded OEM filter?

Have you try the ones you mentioned in your Tiguan? I imagine the cartridges are same for 1.4, 1.8 and 2.0 or not?
The WIX and NAPA Gold are identical to the Mann made VW filters. I haven’t bought one but, I’ve looked at them. Just like the Motorcraft FL-2062A cartridge filter is identical to the WIX/NAPA Gold filter. Yes, my Tiguan uses the same filter as your Golf. Mann+Hummel is now the parent company of WIX.
I got couple of VW Genuine 06L115562B left. It says they are made in Slovakia.
That's why I start to look for replacement and something cheaper and hopefully same good quality..
The WIX you mentioned is on RockAuto for $4.86.
The WIX is probably made in Poland or Brazil.
Aparently these Fram Ultra cartridges are made in Korea
Interesting. For what car is that one?
I think that one's for certain Fiat-Chrysler vehicles, but I think all the white media fram cartridges come from Korean
Generally , if the media is white, the filters are made in China or South Korea. The pink media filters are US made.
The Fram Ultra for the Toyota 5.7 V8 is made in China and has the same white media.
This there a difference in the media performance since it’s different? Seems like the red is wire backed and the white is plastic like boss and xp

Jurko, have you been able to obtain this XG11784 anywhere yet?
Seemingly it isn't even available in Europe anyway. To be honest
I wouldn't consider it if it was made in North Korea regardless of
its quality.

They're definitely not made in N. Korea lol
The Ultra XG 11784 is Exactly the same as the K&N HP 7038. I have both, I'm returning the K&N. Other than color, appear to be identical materials. Both made in Korea.
Use Mann HU6013z, exactly the same as Audi oem. 2016 Audi A6 2.0t Quattro.
The Mann Made in Germany filters are built heavier, thicker, double walled, and have a mesh lining of some kind as well as rubber internal gaskets.
The Fram ultra and K&N internal seal is just material, no rubber or silicone O ring. The paper synthetic material in the Fram/K&N (pretty sure these are made in the exact same factory) is quality tightly bound pleats, but the Mann uses a more spread out although almost double thick pleat, the filter feels twice as thick inside to outside. The Fram/K&N weigh 1.1 oz and the Mann 1.3, doesn't seem like much but the Mann is noticeably heavier and feels higher quality. The Mann's are very reasonable on ebay or amazon. $11 per roughly. All three are 20k mile Synthetic rated filters.

Walmart has it, but only online 
I bought my Fram XG11784 Ultra Guard Synthetic in store, $10.97. Varies by location I'm sure.Walmart has it, but only online
CARTRIDGE OIL FILTER don't have a car with one and at 78 it isn't likely I ever will.
So I thought I would cut open the Audi VW Mann filter I just took at to show the dirt it collected, no metal thankfully! 2016 Audi A6 2.0t 53k miles. The mesh webbing is the inside or return side, outside catches the dirt. 3,200 miles roughly on filter! Also, the oil that came out is pitch black. No light will pass through a 4qt jug with 2500 lumens flashlight! So, change your oil often, 5k max! None of this 10k or will last up to 20k junk. Change it at 3-5k!

But if your parents owned a car with an oil filter while you were a child (<14 or so), it was a cartridge filter.
Only car that had one and different than todays was my 49 Chevy. Oh and look at my signature I don't have a 49 Chevrolet!
