E evilmonkeyMSP Scrotie McBoogerBalls Contributor : '13 CWP MS3 & '16 Mazda6 GT Nov 16, 2007 #2 they do have a cartridge filter which is much different than the standard oil filter. Many places probably dont carry them. Protege Garage sells a conversion kit to convert it to a regular oil filter. http://mazda3online.web.aplus.net/product_info.php?cPath=281_22_310_69&products_id=1210

S SwampAss Member : 2007 Mazdaspeed3 Nov 16, 2007 #3 They are paper cartridge filters. I don't know if they are dealer only as I have only bought them from the dealer (so they have record of my oil changes) It's possible that they do not stock them at certain oil change places.
