I prefer the all paper Mann over the Plastic and paper Mahle. The last Mahle I used was REALLY hard to get out and the new on hard to put in. The Mann go in and out much more easily.
That's odd. I've never had this issue before with them. The Mahle seems more rigid to me, but to be fair, I have yet to see a Mann filter degrade.
On a side note, stay away from Pennzoil filters. I had a few sent to me for free when I bought some oil on Amazon, and the first one came out seriously degraded. :thumbdwn:
like what Solidjake said, Mann is used by BMW on your car. unless they changed or they have a new factory making different spec oil filters, Mann is good. :thumbup:
