I figured i'd post this for those, like myself, who order their filters in bulk.

In regards to the different sizes:

Originally Posted by ROADWAR I change my own oil and have investigated the discrepancy between the size of the filter that comes on the 2010 speed 3 and the listed replacement for it. The filter that comes from the factory is marked as a Ford part and is much longer than the listed replacement. I purchased a Wix replacement (Wix #51348) which is 3.404 inches long. There has been discussion either here or on another forum about the 2010 cars not holding as much oil as listed in the manual when the oil was changed. Researching the Wix site, I found that the filter listed as a replacment for the Mazda 6s (with 3.6 v6) Wix #51516 is identical to the 51348 filter except for length (it is 4.828 inches in length). All other parameters including thread size and length, flow rate, bypass pressure, media particle catching size, and gasket dimensions are identical. This filter obviously will hold more oil. I believe that the Mazdaspeeds are coming from the factory with v6 sized filters. Why is the smaller filter listed as a replacement? Who knows? The smaller filter is the replacement for the 2.0 in the 3i. I'm going to be using the larger filter and getting oil capacity closer to the manual's specification. Cliff notes version: Wix "big" replacement filter (like factory installed)= #51516 (holds more oil) Wix "small" replacment filter (same as 2.0 spin on)= #51348 For those of you that let the dealer do your oil changes, you can specify that they use a Mazda 6s replacement. Hope this helps.

I do since I have pretty bad allergies during pollen season :/

Is the 51348 the long version. At napa the long is 1516, I tried searching that number and nothing came up.

Filter 1 is where I ordered mine from last year. I had to ask for my tracking number a few days later but they got it out the door pretty quick.

51348 is the normal sized filter.

51516 would be the equivalent of NAPA's 1516.

It would be the EXACT same filter, as the NAPA Gold line is just rebranded WIX.

I certainly do. Mine tend to collect pine needles and samaras. Here's what my Tacoma cabin air filter looked like at 36k:

I've noticed my car gets dustier when the cabin filter is shot. Who'd want to breathe all that crap in. May have to order some longs in the morning.

[GCPhotographers]

I changed mines last month. I found a lot of crap in there.

Awesome Info! Thanks

Or be cheap and cut up a full size filter into the proper sizes. That was my plan but I grabbed some a while back on amazon for $9.59 and still have not swapped them. But this is a good price for wix with the code.
I am going to grab 10 oil filters as good price @$4.49/filter compared to $6.75/filter for napa gold + tax plus have to drive to store...
Nice the free ship is before discount so don't have to order 12.
Even if only order 5 with $5 shipping still cheaper than Napa by a $1 each...
Thanks.
