Quick question about Oil Filter change

[scourge at cogeco.ca (Scourge)]

I have an OBDII ABA from a 97'. I still use the same Mann filters I've used
on every other car I've owned(all a1/a2 vw's) and I have no issues.
Is there a price difference? Maybe just an excuse to charge more and claim
it's something new.
