Hi Everyone
Getting organised for doing a service on my ZD30 in the next few weeks.
Went to Supercheap today and priced up the filters :
Ryco Oil filter $34.50
Ryco Air filter $39.99
Ryco Fuel filter $38.50
Totaling $112.99 + oil at $90 - $100 for a 10 liter tub.
So then looked on ebay and found this:

Not heard of Western filters. So can't really comment. ...... but i tend to stock up on filters and what not when all the car shops have their sales, which are fairly regularly. Got 10ltrs of penrite for $50 a couple of weeks ago from Supercrap
thats dear for oil i get dello 4oo for $110 for 20 lts even super crap and repco has 20 ltr drumsQuote:

Thanks for the replies. I think I will order those filters so that I have them here for when I need them.
My Third 256 - that oil price was for Penrite HPR at supercheap. I Don't remember seeing Dello 400 on the shelf. Maybe I'll go back and have another (better) look.
Western Filters are good to deal with and just ask who their filters are rebranded from if in doubt.

Thanks Adam. How often do you & others recommend changing your Fuel Filter (diesel) ?
yep all good they use coopers filters stamped with does not void manufacturers warranty and there is sydney filters as well. me im a frequent flyer there.
Hi Nixon
I don't know what others are doing with their fuel filters, but I change mine every 2nd service unless I have reason to think that I may have got dirty fuel and then I'd do it at each service. It's pretty cheap insurance compared to replacing an injector pump, or injectors.
Change mine every 2nd service, so approx every 10kQuote:

Thank you. I had better get into that habit as well. I have been a little slack.
Was under the impression that genuine filters were recommended over after market. I think the reference document explained why with some filter test results.
It's a good ebay deal though. I'm looking at my next service (which will be my 1st patrol service on the CRD).
This is what I thought and stick to as well. Local repco bloke even strayed me away from buying their oil filter and said go up the road to Nissan and buy a genuine one.Quote:

I wish it were different. I have a sister who works for Donaldson... So cost price [emoji52]
The original filters aren't that much more expensive from what I've seen & considering how much we spend to protect our engines and fit NADS etc, saving a few bob on filters isn't logical.

Might want to get a K&N filter well 2 really and keep one oiled and ready to go.
That will save you some money depending on the Ks you do and where
Ryco put a kit out including the A/c filter for $100 thats for 5 filters.
