^^^It's called trying to keep the xBs price low as possible.
It's done on the Nissan side too, except for the more expensive cars. |

nope..
the cars never come with one. the diy is nice and a very cheap alternative (considering how much toyota or anywhere else charges for theirs..) |

I do the DIY filters and change them @5k with the oil service! They get amazingly dirty!
