I need to get an oil filter for my S.

I have tried Outmotoring and a couple of other places, but they all want more in shipping than the cost of the filter.

Anyone have a great place to buy them at with low shipping prices?

 

Your MINI dealer actually has decent prices on OEM filters. If you are close to a dealer, just pick one up there.

Love this site

 

Thanks MSFITOY ! They can ship for less than the cost of the filter......I love it.

 

I usually order 5 or 6 and the shipping is still like $5

 

Another option is your local parts store. Such as AutoZone. They have an STP filter (with the plastic cage in the center) for about $7 plus tax. Although that is about the same as buying 5 and having them shipped via this link: http://www.myminiparts.com/proddetai...od=MOG-CarCare You just get it right away (if in stock)

 

ebay.com has genuine MINI oil filters in cases of 5, 10, and 25. they're cheap too.

 

Remember that you can also get the NAM discount at Classic Mini in Ohio, just have them ship 5-10 of them at a time.

Also, if you find a local MIni group, maybe everyone can split a really big order!

 

I've found that most dealers (any brand of car) will give you a wholesale price if you buy in lots of 10 or more. Also if your a member of your local MINI club or work for somebody big enough, you could get discounts.

I remember buying Toyota oil filters once and having my jaw hit the floor when I picked up a case of 10 oil filters for the price of 3 if I had bought them one at a time.
