I just picked-up a VW 068 115 561B oil filter from my local VW dealer today. The cost was approximately $9.50.
This is the "over-sized" filter that is now supposed to be used on the 1.8T engine. It is my understanding, that because of it's size, it increases total oil capacity and partially addresses the sludge issue with these engines.
On the filter it is stamped made in the USA. Does anyone have an idea who manufactuers this filter? Is there a "generic" equivilant?
