Many Audi/VW models house the oil filter cartridge in a plastic oil filter housing that requires a 36mm socket to properly remove it without damaging the housing. This compact socket is used to properly remove the black plastic oil filter housings on cars with the engines including 2.0T and 2.5L engines. Made by Metalnerd, specifically for the latest Audi/VW models.
Note: The housings must be drained of oil before unscrewing the housing or you will have oil gushing everywhere. The Oil Filter Housing Drain Tube (MN4057) sold separately, is made specifically for this purpose.
