It looks like its and almost maybe...
030 115 561D for the 20V
078 115 561D for the 2.8
I wouldn't chance it especially since the one for the 20V is cheaper.<ul><li><a href="http://www.germanfilters.com/">http://www.germanfilters.com/</a</li></ul>

AAH or AFC? They have different filters.
A trick I learned from Miktip was to use the bigger AFC filter on my AAH.
The Mahle 7A filter I have sitting here (056 115 561G / OC47) looks a lot like the OE AAH filters.

The Mann Filter designation......
...for the W719 filters means that the 719/5 (20v) is rated for 5K kilometers and the 719/30 (2.8) is good for 30k km. So the 719/30 is "better" because it has more filter media stuffed into the same can (and that's why it costs a little more). The bypass pressure and flow ratings are the same so both will "work".
If space on your motor allows, everyone should consider using the W940/25 filter, now Audi/VW recommended for the 1.8T motor (i.e., the SludgeMonster!), but was previously developed for the Audi/VW 4 cyl TDI. Bypass pressure and flow also same as W719.
It's even bigger and very sturdy; costs about $1 (US) more than the W719/30.
I'm currently using the W940/25 on my 88 90q (NG) only because my A/C compressor is out of the car. With it in, the filter won't fit and I have to use the W719/30.
There's a Mahle equivalent to the W940/25 but it costs way more - doesn't seem to be available anywhere at much of a discount.
GermanFilters is THE place for filters!
