Default the cheapest place would be to buy them in bulk from an online store

by then they are down near about 5-6 bucks each. However if you require one, and only one, I would suggest just getting one from the dealer for about 8 bucks.


click the link, choose your car etc.
They sell 5 for about 32 bucks.<ul><li><a href="http://www.clairparts.com/MB.asp">clickity click, click!!!</a></li></ul>

Default ECS or blaufergnugen

About $5/filter + shipping. Only marginally cheaper than just buying them at your local VW dealer when you need one.

Default yep, also ordered air filter, cabin filter, new drain bolt, etc b/c the shipping is pretty high

last time I got an oil filter at the dealer it was $12 before tax. so for the price of two of those I got 5 at ECS. thats about a year supply for me.
