The OEM is flimsy for a reason. If it weren't, you wouldnt be able to get it out of the cavity it lives in in some models.

LOL, I'm not going to argue with VW Fanboi's, To me the Aftermarket one was built better and slid in nicely, the stocker felt crap in my GTI and mother in laws TSI.
Just giving an opinion

LOL, All good, been a Mechanic going on 20 years now, worst customers have always been Euro owners, especially with a tiny bit of knowledge. Not putting you in this category, just a general comment, I see you're a mechanic going by your signature.

I'm a fan of using OEM a lot of the times, but sometimes the reason there is an aftermarket part is it's a genuine upgrade or better option. I liked how the filter felt, nice and strong, whereas the stock one nearly fell apart pulling it out.

Not trying to argue with anyone though, just chatting
