[s-cars] Oil filter options for 95 S6

[Tom Green]

The 068 115 561 B oil filters are an excellent choice for the  AAN engine, especially
free ones.  I have been using the genuine Audi filters for several years in both the 
1.8t and the AAN engines so I only have to stock one filter to use on both the A4 and the
UrS6.  It allows a little more oil capacity which I think is a good thing.
