D2 2.8 Oil Filter Question
The oil filter for the 2.8 is 078115561J.
But when hunting about to grab one some places show a short one and a long one! Euro Car Parts for example has one at 142mm in length and one 114mm in length. All other dimensions the same and I sure they both filter the oil. Is this a long life service thing with the longer filter? (Not that I would be doing that, just interested)

Don't follow the long life scheme it's absolutely idiotic .
For my last 4 oil changes I used this filter: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175672031...mis&media=COPY

Thanks
 I do an oil and filter every year even if the car has done only a few thousand miles since the last change.

The OE filter is quite short - closer to 114mm than 142.
