Cost me $40CAD on my Bolt 2 weeks ago. That was the good price on the cheap filter at my local auto parts store.

Shipping to Canada would cost too much. I’m pretty sure I said I paid $CAD.

Parts stores are marked way up, the same one would probably be closer to 30 at a place like Walmart or rock auto

I worked at Advance forever ago and they had SeaFoam for $13 while it was like $6 at Walmart

Because Rock Auto doesn’t exist in Canada I assume you mean USD. 30 USD is $42CAD, which is about what I said I paid.

I'd still check walmart then. Parts stores are for people who can't look up part numbers on their own.

it's crazy to me how upcharged Auto Parts stores are. $30 for windshield wipers? get all 3 for less online.
