For some reason, the last 2 Carquest filters have started leaking from the gasket area.
Not real bad, no sign on the ground where it it parked, but the filter was oily and the pan was as well.
Filter was plenty tight, no double gasket, no obvious damage to the mounting area, so no idea.
Will see if the D+ does it or not.

2021 VW Golf GTI with 6 quarts of Castrol Edge 5w-30. Oil filter is OEM VW. Will replace plastic drain plug next time since I changed out the break-in oil at only 1000 miles.
 
Well you surely picked up a good deal on that I though I had a bargain at $16.
If that was to me, yeah, it was good, but her last change of Rotella Gas Truck and Carquest Blue filter was
Her next change will actually be either free or they will have paid me (free Mobil 1 filter from @DuckRyder a few years ago that I have yet to use and either some free Mobil 1 AFE due to Walmart pricing error or some Rotella Gas Truck that I was paid a few bucks for on clearance and rebate).

I almost bought a used '14 a few years ago but went with a new Subaru instead. Had 2 Audis at the time and didn't want another expensive maintenance car. Your car sure does take a lot of oil. My B5 S4 takes about 8 qts but I have it modified with a second oil cooler and I am using the larger B6 A4 oil filter. Stock is about 6.5

I got this BMW in December 2019 with 84k, manual. Put 22k miles on it since and had so far only failed oil filter housing gasket ($37), which is a usual item on these engines, and I track this car.
The engine takes 7.5qt bcs. inline 6. They always take a lot of oil as 5&6 cyl cooling is more dependent on oil. Also, I retrofitted the oil cooler from 335 as I had oil temperature issues on track. So, now, it takes almost 8qt. That is good as these inline 6 also do not like high G load taking a left turn on the track. So, usually on track, people overfill a bit these engines.
