Cheapest place to buy OE LR air filter.
As per the title. Previously I used to get TLO to chuck one in with other parts. I want the LR branded OE one.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

I reckon lrdirect has nowt to do with land rover themselves and are just another britpart/bearmach/allmakes factor.
To the op, dont forget land rover do not make filters.
Find the britpart number for the filter add a G to the end of the part number and that gives you genuine or oe spec.

I'm sticking with LR branded filters whilst my D4 is under warranty. No room for arguments that way. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

I bung in a new Mahle filter every year. They are only £6 or so from Advanced Factors.
The ones you get from LR are not branded LR - they still say Mahle on them.

Interesting. Thanks Robbie
My D4 is coming up for a year old next month, like you I routinely change the air filter once a year.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

It is a no-brainer to throw in a new one every year as the engine breathes better and they cost peanuts. They may even pay for themselves with the slight mpg improvement.
