Dnk Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Did he say why he its better ? I've been using the O/E Toyota ones for quite a few years now, infact my mkiv has done over 133,000 miles using them and is running as sweat as a nut. Toyota O/E filter is £10.20 + vat retail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
