    Inexpensive oil filter in Canada

    Maybe this'll help out my fellow Canadian 9-5 owners. My dealership chares ~$15 for an OEM oil filter. I have no problem with paying that if it's my only choice, but I've found an awesome local deal.

    PartSource sells MANN W712/80 filters for only $5.49 + tax. I have no reservations about using a MANN filter so this is an awesome find. Hopefully this is helpful. You can also get Bosch filters from Autopartsway.ca for about $3.50, but shipping isn't free unless the order total is above $175.

    Actual best filter on the market is by Wix which also make NAPA gold. Most of the others work fine just these two are best built.

    I use a Wix 51516, seems to be a really well made filter. It's slightly oversize, so the theory is that you're trapping more of the bad stuff...
