I just rang Toyota and they said 76 bucks for a genuine filter. I thought that was a little to steep for my budget so can someone help me out?

$76 for an air filter?!? Think they are pulling your chain a bit there mate. I thought that the general concensus on OEM air filter prices was that they are around the $28 mark. I wouldn't actually know as I have never bought one myself (thanks guys, you know who you are!) but I'm sure that someone can confirm/deny this soon enough.

Matt, try ringing Castle Hill Toyota, a quick search will reveal their contact details.

They will post it out to you too, most say they are very well priced.

Good luck.

I got over chasing up a panel filter, so i just bought a hyper wanker pod filter. Can you believe it's hyper wanker blue aswell?
