Latest 2L. Turbo VW Oil Filters

[Zee09]

On new VW vehicles is the OEM oil filter the way to go or is there a preferred brand?

I ask because VW is a new experience to me. Price seems to be about the same as the rest.

Stick to OEM.

I'd use Hensgt, Mahle, Mann or OEM.

My wifes Audi OEM oil filter is made by Mann. W719/45. Advanced Auto stocks it in store but at the highest price. The OEM is $13.08 at my Audi dealer which the parts guy tapes a crush gasket on the box for free.

Mann is fine. Chances are, the VW filter is stamped with Mann on it

Mann, Mahle, Hengst.

Lately the OEM filters are often made by UFI and I'm not into Chinese parts if I can avoid them.

Thanks.
I did like that Hengst video on here.
Looks like a quality product.

I only use Mann = OE VW/Audi on the EA888 3G so far.

I will say that 5qts of 504/507 and a CQ filter at AAP is a pretty strong deal.

I did grab some that cheap Valvoline
0w30 the other day.
Didn't know about that AAP deal.

"Let's talk new cars" is the name of the thread, I think.

I did answer your question.
Arteon.

I use OEM only on ours.

If it's a cartridge filter application, I'd lean to OEM first. Fit is a major consideration with cartridges and OEM has or should have that covered. That said, if someone has personal experience and good results with an aftermarket, then ok.

If it's a standard spin on type, then no problem going with an aftermarket, especially from a well known manufacturer.

For the 2.0 in the Atlas the OEM matches the Mann 6013z almost exactly. I used OEM on the first change but will resume with Mann after my dealer complementary services are complete.

That is the same model # for the Arteon.

That is the same model # for the Arteon.

I was able to compare the oem with the Mann (in hand) and it’s pretty obviously same/same.
