I just came back from the Toyota dealership to get prices on some suspension work and one of the things that they quoted me on, which is absurd, was an oil filter for $100! That's only for the part! Then there's the fuel filter for $75 and a stock air filter for $50!
Does anyone have/know where i can get part numbers for servicing supplies, such as oil filters, fuel filters, etc? I have a '94 3SGE JDM hatch and i'm having a hell of a time finding the right part numbers in order to order them from Toyotaworld, which after finding the oil filters for the 5SFE at $5 each, is a much better option.

Well, the good news is that what started of as costing me 28,938Mts (+/-$1,100) in parts, will now cost me about $200, thanks to Malpaso. I have to give Jeff at TW a call just to confirm some other parts.
The bad news is that after speaking to the local Toyota dealer and i informing them that i will be providing the original Toyota parts myself, they stated that they would not be able to install the pieces as they were not purchased through them, according to their policy! ![]() So in order to get my car fixed properly, i will have to buy some of the larger and more complicated parts through Toyota so that they can install them, and use a different mechanic to install the other simpler items and just pay the labor. Win some, lose some. ![]() This post has been edited by Slick: Dec 14, 2006 - 3:22 AM -------------------- ![]() "Remember, amateurs built the ark and professionals built the Titanic.
