Go to your local super expensive Mazda dealer. They will sort you out. Lol. The rate you will change oil filters just get one that fits from a car parts supplier.

You do know the only difference between a genuine, aftermarket and performance oil filter is the price?

Just get a blueprint generic oil filter, it won\'t be on there for long anyway.

Mazda Rotary Parts should be able to supply you a genuine filter if that\'s the way you want to go... Just give them a call when they are open again
I have had Mazda filters off them

As I learned the hard way with my VW Passat 1.8T, you have VW-branded made by Bosch parts costing £100, and Bosch-branded or unbranded parts made by Bosch costing £25.

Make your choice.
