Granted the price is steep, but, how much did you pay for your car? Most people have no problem dropping $30K - $50K for a car, then trying to skimp on the grade of fuel they burn or the fluids they put into their car, if they even bother with the regular maintenance.
I use Purolator Pure One filters for my Saab and buy them at Meijer's for $4.99. They don't fit my Infiniti, so it gets the Mobil 1 filter. I'd rather use a great filter and petroleum oil and change it every 3,500 miles, than a great synthetic and a cheap-ass quality filter and change it every 5k -7k.
With a Saab, you have the Purolator and AC option and most of us take that option, knowing the quality of those filters is quite high. Those of us that have trouble finding a Purolator Pure One or an Amsoil filter for our other ride pay the $11.99, to go along with the Saab synthetic in our engines.
What filter did you buy for the VW?
