Oil Filters & Pollen/Cabin Filters

[ReadTheBook]

If you're in the US, this place is fairly cheap to get these parts. I order my pollen filter and oil filters from here together and just save money on shipping. I also own a Golf and a GTI so it make a bit more sense for me.

I just ordered 2 mann charcoal pollen filters and 2 mann oil filters for $49 shipped from their facility in NJ to me in CA.

New to vw and haven't gotten to this point to research yet. What's the deal with Mann? Is it OEM? Like OEM? Better than OEM?

Mann is OEM. The filter you get from the dealer is stamped VW and MANN

The cabin filter may also be stamped Valeo as well. Don't worry, they are interchangeable.

FYI to everyone, my link above is also for the cabin filter with the carbon filament for extra odor killing.

Also keep in mind these little buggers when you change the cabin filter, they will fly out and you will not see them

What are you wanting to know?
Nice looking filter.

Best filter one can use in MK7.

Here is some info on a pre filter cabin filter one can install.

Forum Member Sabo has more info on his build thread.

Info below and link at bottom.
Easy mod.

Sandman GTI MK7 PP DCC Lighting Pkg - The Journey begins!

I first learned of this mod from a forum member who owned a Light blue Golf Wagon. I do not recall his forum name but I know he was outside the USA. Most of my info I have is from Forum Member "SABO" who hooked me up with a new Pre Filter Housing and 1 filter. This mod is not that hard to do but might be a big help in keeping the cabin filter fresh and reduce any bad smells long term in the car. What the pre filter collects, bugs, pollen, etc. will be more outside the car and might help keep the smell out also. This snorkel housing is located under the cowl, bottom of the windshield on the passenger side.



Giving "Sabo" the credit here is a link to his build page where he has listed the part info and link to purchase.



Not a hard or costly not.

Filter housing is under $20.

Filters are around $4.

Worth a test.



Old Housing









Your cars vibrator.





AC intake opening - something to clean.

The pre-filter is within 4 inches of the main cabin filter.





Filter housing compare.









Temperature Sensor - Hole

The new housing has a larger hole. Had to help this out.





Use two way auto tape to make for a tighter fit. Tape does not hold well to the plastic but friction fit should hold. Will keep an eye on it. You will need to secure this more when you move to new housing.





New housing bolted in.





Filter in place.

The filter is not water proof. I put a drop of water on it and it soaked it right up. If we could find this filter made in the same material as a Shop Vac washable filter it would be great.
