Advantages of a Volkswagen Genuine Air Filter:

The superior fit of a Genuine Air Filter ensures your engine will remain protected until your next service and you can enjoy a more comfortable drive as the air intake noise is reduced.

The high absorption capacity protects your pistons, valves and cylinder walls from contaminates that can cause engine wear and stops fine particles from reaching your air mass meter sensor, therefore preventing inaccurate readings that can affect fuel economy.

Uniform air flow over the entire surface area of the filter means your engine will perform at optimum efficiency.
Genuine Air Filters are manufactured using low flammable materials and meet the strict quality standards of the Volkswagen Group, DIN and ISO.

Disadvantages of a lower quality air filter:

An air filter that doesn’t fit your Volkswagen correctly will allow unfiltered air into your engine, so protection may not last between service intervals and you may notice more air intake noise when you’re driving.

Poorer quality paper may absorb fewer contaminates and let unfiltered particles through, damaging engine components and affecting the air mass meter sensor, which results in an incorrect fuel and air mixture, reduced engine performance.

Increased emissions and reduced fuel economy.
