Oil filters Glk 350

Is Mann a good oil filter , I’ve been buying them on Amazon . Is MB better ? Are any of the German filters better than the other ? Do they all only filter to about 20/30 micron ? What’s best ? Has anyone used a bypass system that goes to 5 micron ?

I think so. Been using them for half a century.

The rest of the questions are too much like another oil thread...

I called Mann they said it’s Fleese and the same as mb in micron . So I’m guessing 5-20 micron . I was wondering if there is better but I don’t see it so I’ll continue using it. 😃

Likewise, Mann filters have been my default choice for 30 years or more. Most of the filters in the Merceds box are Mann filters. The original filters from the factory on M276 & M278 engines were, however, made by PurFlux. Visually, the quality of manufacture didn’t look as good as the Mann to me, so I switched.

If you’re like me, retired, home alone, and nothing time critical to do for a half hour, watch this kinda humorous video on filtration.
