Oil Filter 068xxxxx Sludge?

[Dan DiBiase]

Mine didn't either, mainly because I don't follow Audi's 10k oil change intervals. ;-)

Sludge? I thought only Yota V6's had sludge :)  Ok ok.  My 1.8t never had
sludge...although I did write it off at about 40000 km.

It's the filter I use for my car - 2004 A4 1.8T. I believe it was originally
spec'ed for the VW Rabbit Diesel, but in 2004, it was 
named the larger capacity filter for the 1.8T as a partial response to the
sludging issues.

Anybody know the application of a spin-on oil filter   068115561b?    I
ordered a bunch of 06Axxxxxxx   for stock some time back while getting
other stuff shipped, and recently discovered they sent the 068xxxxxxxx
instead.  They don't fit my application (200q20v) because their diameter is
so large it runs into the sump and won't go on.  Aren't right for my V8s or
the S8 either.
