My dealer charges 12-13 bucks for an oil filter. I like to support him, but considering I can get an oil filter for 2-3 bucks for my 400ex at Rocky Mountain Atv. Anybody know of a cheaper price?

 

I buy mine for $3.50 a piece at my local Yamaha shop.

 

$3.50??????
I ahvent seen them any cheaper than $12 at several shops.

 

 

I pay 7.00 here in tax free new hampshire, still is high priced though

Go to advance auto parts and they can match the filter up and you'll get one for half that price and dont worry they are the same! F yamaha there pricing for the raptor is crazy!~

 

Do you know the brand and part number of the filter you got from advance? Would be alot easier then going to Yamaha dealer.

 

$9.00 at my dealer and that is with a discount. It is still high and I am buying for 3 raptors now. A new source would be nice to find.

 

$14 here in Texas at Arlington Yamaha. I am just surprised they even stock the filters. They don't stock anything else. By the way...what good is a dealership anyway. They are all a bunch of dumb A$$es and do not know squat about anything. Everytime you go to get something from these places like Tie Rods, it's always the same response...I can order it for you. Hell I can order stuff for myself also. I hate all of the dealers in my area. They are all a joke.

 

Take your filter to an auto parts store with you they will match it up. Then you'll know what filter your local autoparts carries that matches up. Just be sure if your quad ever goes in for warrenty work that you have a yam filter on it or they'll say something dumb to try and get out of covering the work. They'll say the warrenty isnt covered because its not a yam product filter when the damn things are identicall do the same with the oil if you use a different brand other than yamalube make sure there is yamalube in the quad when you take it to your dealer for warrenty work. Most dealers dont care but some are reall asses and will charge you and get credit for warrenty work as well there are a bunch of crooked dealers out there so be carefull when dealing with warrenty work.
