Product Overview

The oil filter, OEM number 06M198405F, is the engine oil filter element fitted across an unusually wide range of current Audi models, including the A4, A6, A7, A8, Q7, Q8, RS5, RS6, and S4. Since this filter spans so many Audi sedan, SUV, and performance models, it's a genuinely high-turnover part for anyone stocking Audi service items.

A worn or overdue filter typically shows up as darker, dirtier oil at inspection, an oil pressure warning light, or reduced engine performance if the filter has become significantly clogged. GSK Auto manufactures this filter element to OEM specification at our Ningbo, China facility, with every unit tested before packing. We supply at wholesale volume with low MOQ and support private label packaging, with our team available to confirm fitment before shipping.

(Confirm against your VIN or chassis code before ordering - this filter spans multiple Audi models and engine variants, so it's worth double-checking the exact model and engine before ordering at volume.)

What Is an Oil Filter?

Function: The oil filter removes contaminants, metal particles, and debris from engine oil as it circulates, protecting internal engine components from abrasive wear.

Working Principle: Oil is pumped through the filter media, which traps particulate contamination while allowing clean, filtered oil to continue circulating through the engine's bearings, camshaft, and other moving parts.

Importance: Clean oil is essential for engine longevity, since contaminated oil accelerates wear on bearings and other precision-machined components, making the oil filter one of the most important routine maintenance items on any engine.

Common Failures & Signs: Filter media becoming saturated with contaminants over time, reducing filtration effectiveness. Darker, dirtier oil at routine inspection or oil change intervals. Oil pressure warning light if the filter becomes significantly restricted. Reduced engine performance in cases of severe filter clogging.
