Mann vs. Mahle filters

Is there any noticeable difference in quality between the Mann and Mahle oil filters?

I've used Mann, Mahle-Knecht; Hengst - oil/gas/air/power steering filters.

If there's a difference in quality/performance, I've yet to detect it.

99.99% of the time Mann, Mahle, & Hengst are equal in quality on MB products!
