Re: Cheap filters....CR

About Consumer Reports.  They also did a test on engine oils last year and
found little difference between them, whether synthetic or not.  Yeh right!  

Of course, they also used NYC taxis as their test fleet (a sorry bunch of
vehicles IMHO) that, they would admit, were running almost constantly (ie.,
didn't have to start a cold engine very much). What, not a REAL WORLD
test?!?!   

We all have our preferences, but I'd agree with Al that your oil filter
(close to the cheapest thing you can buy for your quattro) can mean so much
to its longevity.  Its your car.
