Air And Oil Filter - Fleabay Deal - Any Good?

[lexuslloyd]

Hi all,

getting my oil and filters changed, just wondered where is cheapest to by the oil and air filter? fleabay has them for £19 delivered. I don't wanna use my local parts place, they quoted £340 just for rear dics and pads :tsktsk: , dread to think what they charge for filters lol

Use a OEM Toyota oil filter- they don't cost more than a tenner from Toyota/Lexus.

Avoid the cheap patterned oil filters, I have heard that they aren't that good. As for the air filter, why not get a K&N panel filter off eBay?

as above, avoid pattern parts, the oem oil filters are cheap as chips B).......opie oils do great deals on oil/ K&Nair filters

thanks for the replies,

will give that a miss then. found the genuine toyota oil filter for £9 off there no will go for that.

Are the K&N's any good?

I had a Tom's Super street ram 2 air filter on before- but wouldn't rate it - paid something like £54 for it, luckily managed to sell it on eBay later on :)

am i right in thinking the K&N filters last a lifetime, u just need to oil them up and blow them out once a year?
