Default is there a performance difference between a Meyle and a Mann oil filter.
One is like 2 bucks cheaper than the other.

Mann, Mahle, but i didn't know about Meyle if the same brand as the ctrl arms it should be good too.

I'd skip Meyle and get Mahle or Mann.

Default Meyle is well known for having weak joints.
Search on the A4 forum, you'll find a few discussions from way back in the day.
