Default Mobil 1 (M1-204) Oil Filter Warning - All Audi applications for this filter have been revoked per

manf. due to inadequate thread reach issues. The nipple (threaded thing that filter screws onto) is too short (actually the threads on the filter's baseplate are too recessed) and there may not be enough contact to properly hold the filter to your car. If it falls off or leaks, you could suddenly loose oil pressure and/or most of your oil. In case you were wondering; this isn't good at all for your engine!

We use the M1-205. Is that one fine?
