Oil filters assist in removing small contaminant particles from your engine oil. The process works with help from the oil pump which pushes the oil through the filter fibers, and back into the engine. The filter media captures dirt particles from entering the engine, so that it can continue to function properly and smoothly.

Keep in mind, that over time, your Volkswagen's oil filter will eventually become clogged or worn out. The synthetic fibers on the interior of the oil filter cylinder can only last for so long, typically up to 7,500 miles depending on your driving habits and VW model. Some warning signs that your oil filter may be going bad are:

Low oil pressure
Oil leaks
Metallic sounds from the engine
Engine spluttering
Dirtier exhaust emissions
Poor performance

There is no doubt that your car engine will undergo problems if a faulty or old oil filter goes unchecked. It's of the utmost importance to choose the correctly fitted oil filter for your year and model.
