I know a lot of you guys love to change your own oil and a large number uses the Mobil1 filters... specifically the M1-105 filter.

I had bought 5 from her and she was willing to give it to me at $6 each shipped. I am pretty sure that they go for $10+ and even $13 at some auto stores so here you get to save some money.

Here is her contact info

Monica > BroxMom2000@aol.com

You can email her asking about the M1-105 filters if you want to order. You can mention "Gee" and/or "Bxscig" and say it is for $6 shipped. I don't think you have to order 5 or something large to get this price I believe.

I haven't gotten mine yet but should in a few days. Oh btw, she runs an ebay store and all with good ratings. She sells tons of other Mobil1 filters but didnt specifically list the M1-105 but I asked her. Also, she does not have the M1-104 the last time I had asked her.... maybe in the future.

Enjoy!!!!

Please update us when you receive the filter. This sounds like a hot deal!

paultl

keep us posted. they cost me 12 bucks at autozone!

Bxscig

Yeah, I called autozone and they said $12 + tax. A lot more than I expected to pay that is for sure. I should get my 5 oil filters in a few days. Won't get to use them until 2000 miles or so later... Can't wait to do my own oil change on the TL.

Bxscig

She has updated her ebay store to include this item now so you can buy via ebay as well. Here is one of the options, check her ebay store for more.

It appears one of you contacted her already about a purchase. For 1/2 price, can't beat it.

paultl

that was me who contacted her!
gonna order tonight =)

Bxscig

Now it is posted on ebay so you guys should be more confident now I guess. I think 5 will last me a long while, beats paying $60 for 5.

Bxscig

I see a few of you guys jumped on it quick.

Bxscig,

Great fine. Does she have more? Or just a limited supply?

thanks..

carcaze

She just listed some more on her store ... check it out.

Due to high demand, the price has gone up from $30 to $35 for 5 filters. It's still a great deal though.

Bxscig

Damn her! I'll see if she will still it to us for $30. High demand should mean cheaper prices. She should of gave them to me for free then

VTEC11

Exactly, kinda like a group buy. If anything they should have been cheaper, but she raised the price .

Bxscig

I'll see if she can drop the price again, but I guess its no big deal $1 off each one.

groper

Is this the right part number for the 04 TL? Thanks

Bxscig

Acutally, I do not know. I just know that the 2nd gen ppl use it. Call and ask Mobil1 I guess to confirm.

Bxscig

It'll stay at $35...

drcookie

It's called price gouging (sp).

VTEC11

Also, she is shipping them parcel post which could take weeks to arrive in the mail.

Bxscig

Weeks? I never had that problem though. Usually 3 to 5 days even from California to NYC. I should have mine Saturday or Tuesday because of the Holiday weekend.

Project_tl

hey i called autozone they said for the 99-02 tls that is the wrong size. are you guys sure its right??

psd112

The M-104 is the same exact size as the OEM. The M-105 she is selling and what the post is referring to is the OVERSIZED filter, which works just fine. Keep in mind you will need to add *slightly* more oil in the crankcase to compensate for the larger filter.

Bxscig

A lot of ppl on this forum has used it. I also called my local autozone but they said it fits.

Bxscig

Here is one more posted by her. See who gets it first!!!

Bxscig

I just got mine in the mail. DAMN that thing is HUGE! You guys weren't kidding with "oversized"

Does it still clear the suspension and other components in the immediate surrounding area?

I'll probably contact her in the next couple of days. I have like 800 miles left on my current oil.

Bxscig

I know a lot of people use it so I assume it does. I haven't used it yet.

tl-s4now

does anyone have experience with this particular filter? I am planning on changing my oil today and want something bigger than the universal tuna can honda is selling.

psd112

I bought my M-105's from her! Great deal! Anyway, the M-105 fits fine, it is a little bit shorter than the OEM, but seriuosly its like 1.5 times in diameter if not more.. At first I was worried but it fits in there! Just did my change a couple days ago with Mobil 1 5w-30 and the M-105!

I prefilled the filter with oil before screwing it on, although some people don't. When you're refilling the crankcase check the oil level, the filter is larger and thus requires more oil (duh) to fill to the correct level. We're not talking quarts here but check on it!

Bxscig

That thing is HUGE! A lot of people on this forum use it that is why I bought it.

paultl

is she still selling them?

Smitty

I tried e-mailing her and I have not heard back from her since... I think I e-mailed her over a week ago.

Bxscig

Last I heard, she thanked me for cleaning her stock out.... was almost out of stock and this was a week ago. Not sure if she has restocked.

I'll ask if she has more.

Bxscig

Nevermind, this is her last reply to me dated morning of 6/1

Smitty

okay, GOTCHA... I'll be waiting.

steveinathens

what is the benefit of using this oversized filter?

Smitty

well it takes alittle bit more oil, but in theory, the larger the filter, the more filter surface area, filtering out as much of dirt in the oil as possible helps the oil to stay cleaner longer..

Did everyone else get their filters? I still haven't got mine and I bought them in late may..and she's not responding to my emails. Does anyone have better contact info for her? I'm about to file a fraud claim... :sqnteek:

Smitty

Bxscig just said she is on vacation till June 14th......

Bxscig

Her last reply to me dated morning of 6/1

I don't think she would be scamming us. I got my 5 filters I think last wk, in about 6 days after I had ordered it.

Did anyone else get theirs?
