Mahle, like Mann, was the OEM supplier to VW, and their filter is comparable. But use only their OC108, not the similar VW Golf version which lacks the proper anti-drainback valve required for a Vanagon. If you can't find them locally, we sell the correct filters online for $4.29 each: http://busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=070115561 - Ron Salmon ("former lurker") The Bus Depot, Inc. www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW _____________________________________________ Toll-Free for Orders by PART # : 1-866-BUS-DEPOT
