Audi Q3 factory filter CUT OPEN

[53' Stude]

Off of a friend of mines 2016 Audi Q3. Has already 8,400 miles. He supplied the EURO EDGE and a Mann filter that same as this one. Looks ok to me, what you folks think?

Looks good car51. Question, third pic from the bottom... is that red substance the glue to hold the pleats in place?

 

[53' Stude]

I would say so sir

It seems odd the way the adbv rests around the outside of the end cap neck, rather than on top of it.

I believe that OEM filter is from Mahle and is one of their Microstar line.
Good solid performer and well made too. Usually they are produced in Austria.

Looks like a nice filter. Thanks for posting!
