My first oil change in my '95 XJ6 is coming up and I'll be using a Mann oil filter as recommended by my Indy Jag mechanic.

K&N I buy them right from K&N Technologies on ebay for $10.85 free shipping. Cheaper than in the auto parts stores.

That's a great option. Thanks for the information.

Got a good deal on several Bosch filters. I have used K & N as well.

I use OEM Jaguar, AC Delco, Bosch, Purolator. I know some guys are *very* fussy but any name brand is good with me :-)

Usually, though, when I place an order with a Jag supplier I have him throw in a few Jag OEM filters so that I have a small supply on the shelf. On the odd occassions where I run out I'll go to an alternate.

This is a lot like synthetic oil, spark plugs, and tires. Lots of varying opinions.

Cheers
