Hello,
I do my own services and want to use genuine oil filters.
Mania has them for $7 which is great.. only that i'm in VIC.
Can anyone recommend a place to get Mazda oil filters for less than $12 (dealer price) ?
Thanks

Preston.
actually it was 11.95 + 1.2 GST = $13.15
Perhaps shipping it from Mania isnt such a bad idea..

Why not just get a better brand like ryco? I would go for one of them before a genuine anyday. And I wouldn't complain about the price, at least it isn't $40

and $40 for an oil filter??? Even genuine??? You guys must be being ripped off by your dealer/service section.....

If you are anywhere near Garry and Warren Smith Mazda in Mulgrave, ask for Anton or Ross in the spare parts area. Costs around $10 or about $9 with club membership discount.

Only use Mazda- $10 from Max Kirwan at Preston.
I've been burned with a dodgy Ryco one. It had an air bubble in the cheap rubber seal that burst and sprayed oil everywhere. The Mazda unit has a much better o-ring set-up.

Autobarn, Repco whereever. They all do the same thing and you arn't getting ripped if you buy from Mazda
