Yesterday I needed the cabin air filter for a VW so i go to AA for one. He comes out with a cheap Drive Works filter and rings it up at almost $19, one look at it put me right off, it was cheaply made and thin material, no carbon.
I figured OE from the dealer but stopped at NAPA anyway. They had a Hengst OE filter Made in Germany with carbon for $19, the difference in quality is night and day.
AA is getting crazy with their filter prices, its a Purolator house so they are probably the ones with the highest profit margin.
NAPA filter prices are good and the quality is there for the same money.
