In case any of the B7 owners want to change your oil in between service intervals. Here is a pic of the oil canister.

god i hate those kind of oil filters they r such a pina to remove instead of the old fashion way

 

My old VR6 GTI used those... You'd think it'd help on cost... but they cost MORE than a regular oil filter. Good times...

 

I just bought one tonight from worldimpex for $14.96. Not tooooo bad.

 

Yeah, it doesnt break the bank or anything... buuuut, considering what it is? And comparing it to a metal filter? They certainly arent passing the savings onto the customer... haha! For some reason I remember prefering the paper filters though, when doing oil changes. Maybe just cause I thought it was cool.

But since the thing is plastic that you unscrew, it never gets seized on.

 

I got these three for only 5 bucks!!! Best damn Oil filters EVER!!!!!
