Ian Lockwood 4 Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) Time to replace my V6S air filter, the Lotus price is about £70 apparently! Given that it is a Toyota-branded part anyway, is there any reason not to use this aftermarket equivalent? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Air-Filter-C26003-Mann-17801AD010-1780131120-A132E6324S-Top-Quality-Replacement-/332236032975 Or this perhaps: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/F026400188-BOSCH-AIR-FILTER-INSERT-S0188-FILTERS-AIR-BRAND-NEW-GENUINE-PART-/381656475982?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 Is there any particular benefit to the K&N option (these are oiled right? Not keen on that...) https://www.carparts4less.co.uk/search/508820891 I'm keen to avoid adding more noise in case it trips a limit on track somewhere (I can squeeze under for Bedford but it's close).

mario308 5 Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) Hi, I’d just go with the original Toyota part which is about £27 from your local Toyota dealer. P/N is: 17801-31120. here is my dirty old one... Edited June 16, 2018 by mario308 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ian Lockwood 4 Posted June 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 Thanks Mario, TBH I'm going with the Bosch option as it's less than half the price of the Toyota part and should be the exact same spec. I'd be suspicious of an unknown brand, but Bosch should be pretty good stuff. My current filter looks very similar to your photo! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
