quattro Digest, Vol 9, Issue 1 - Oil Filter, 1.8T Engine

[Larry C Leung]

Dan,

IF, and ONLY if, you car is speced to use:

06A 115  561B

Then you can also use (according to the Mann cross reference
chart):

034 115 561A
Mahle OC154/264
Mann W719/30

Found this out while looking for filter P/N's for my UrS6, which
apparently takes the same filter. However, I've been told (at Rapid
Parts) that there are several different applications of filters for the
1.8T, so be sure you have the same P/N as the above listing before
cross referencing. 

Thanks to the many listers that helped me with my filter purchase
for the S6....
