OK guys, great news.
I contacted MANN+HUMMEL for some prices, and we have agreed that it would be useful data for us to do a field test among landie owners.
So there will be 20 elements available for litte to no cost (i.e. <$30 for the housing and filter element, and possibly FREE).
There are however a few conditions (aren't there always

).
(1) You will need to fit the system yourself at own cost ASAP after delivery.
(2) After a certain number of KM that WE specify, you will need to remove the filter element, and send it to me (in a sealed plastic bag so oil doesn't get everywhere).
(3) Will need to give us info on what oil you run, how often you change oil and filters, hom many KM on engine, etc. If you do oil analysis, all the better.
WE would prefer people who do high annual km (e.g. 20k km +) , so we have the results faster.
So IF you are interested, please PM me with contact details, engine details AND how many KM per year on average.
I will try and do this on a first come first served basis, but we may end up going with 20x the same engine (but maybe not).
