Guttman Oil Filters?

Has anyone used them before?

Can't seem to find a great amount of detail on them other than they originate out of Bulgaria.

Any reason why you would want to use a non-genuine filter as the cost savings can't be that much.

Just wanted to know if anyone had heard of them or not.

Your right about the cost savings there's not much in it only half the price the Audi stealer wants to charge.

I've sourced some bosch ones for a very similar price as the Guttman

Thats a saving of about £3 then compared to the genuine Audi one.
Pattern filters are built down to a price so even with brand names like Bosch you can end up with an inferior product. It won't result in short term failure but could reduce the life of the engine.
