[V8] Oil Filters

[cobram at juno.com]

Going by other Mann filters (which can be very different depending on the
suffix) I wouldn't risk it.  The 735/2 is a 2000 and up filter for the
A6/S6 Audi's.  This could be only a dimensional difference for fit, or it
could have different flow rate, operating pressure, bypass valve or anti
drain valve.  Here is an old post on the subject, as it related to BMW
filters and the differences in 5 cylinder filters:

There are two types of tragedies in life. One is not getting what you
want, the other is getting it.
