Well, I'm concerned about that "drain back" problem.
Seems most of the Std. Golf / Jetta filters are intended for a near
vertical position. The stay full when the engine stops so they don't
have to refill when it starts again. How would I know if an
aftermarket filter has a valve to prevent the drainback?
Our conversion is at about 5k. Been running dino oil 'til now.
I'm planning to make the switch to Mobil 1 as soon as I figure out the
filter issue.

Is there some reason you guys can't use a high quality aftermarket filter such as the Fram brand? They have several versions that should be better than stock (who makes the ones for VW anyway?). Just go get the ones for all 1.8 & 2.0L VW's. They are usually the same. List question on oil... When can you start using synthetics on a new engine? Is there any reason not to after break in?
