Price Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 $26.99. I needed something at pepboys and out of curiosity checked out if they had oil filters for MINI. I think it's their most expensive AND the smallest (!!) filter available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcveay Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Moss MINI and several other places have them for far less and with those, you usually get the O-Ring for the oil filter housing and a crush gasket for the oil pan drain plug. Team up with someone and buy a 1/2 dozen and they work out to be 6-8 bucks each. Pep Boys and other places can be ridiculous in what they charge for them. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Price Posted December 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 I know, oem from local MoA is ~$10, and other Purolators are even cheaper at the same pep boys. It's just for some reason the small MINI one is triple the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmcveay Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Makes me wonder if the Pep Boys (and other similar stores) prices are because a $20 filter and $30 in oil is still less than the $95+ most places charge for a MINI oil change? 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephatron Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I found it funny that Advanced Auto Parts wanted $24.99. But you can get it cheaper online. I ordered mine from PTuning one day when I went with my friend for parts for his 370Z. I paid $8 and it came with the O-ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Price Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 Well, talk about suspicious coincidences : as I was about to shop for oil/filter, MoA sent a coupon for a $59.99 oil change which I promptly used. The total came up to ~$68, which I think is bargain all thing considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
