Looking for a place to buy a Nissan OEM 15208-9E000 oil filter locally, but don't want to go to the dealership. Thanks in advance.

courtesy nissan maybe. then you won't have to deal with them in person. you can probably buy in bulk too.

Check ebay, they usually have cheap oem stuff

Why not? There are better filters for about the same money.

OEM filters are the best. They have an Anti-drain vavle.

big deal they have an anti-drain vavle (sic) ... there are better filters than nissan's that also have an anti-drain vavle (sic)

so again... why not use something besides OEM... nobody has explained this yet.

I don't know either. I've been using the pure-evil Fram oil filters for over 73K miles now (bought it with 30K). The car doesn't skip a beat and doesn't burn a drop of oil. I compared the Fram and OEM filters and from what I can tell, the difference is in the color of the can. I'm sure I'm wrong about this though.

*edit*

Here are the differences between the Nissan filter and the Fram filter. BTW, they BOTH have the anti-drain back valves.

The other filter that comes close to the reccomendation(OEM Nissan) is the mobil 1 filter which is still said to be not as good (4th gen) but costs twice as much as the Nissan filter in my area.

are you using that website to say that fram and nissan oem are the same? There's less filter area, the core is made of cardboard, and the over-pressure valve is metal and plastic.... one seems better to me.
