Review on Dorman 917-004 Engine Oil Filter Cap: Compatible with Ford/Mazda/Mercury Models, Black Finish by Jim Bijelic

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor design and cheap production :(

What a disappointment! I would give this one zero stars if I could. I ordered this to replace a worn oil filter cap on my daughter's 2004 Mazda. .When I tried to screw it into the engine case the threads didn't close properly and the first thread broke when I tried to tighten the cover.Mazda engineers should be slammed for such a terrible oil filter system and secondly the Dorman- Engineers go back to the drawing board of this product Unfortunately I bought this item many months ago and can no longer return it or exchange it for Revain Luckily the old filter cap still worked and I was able to complete my oil change I would recommend purchasing this part direct from Mazda It doesn't cost a bit more, but saves you a lot of trouble he.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Upgradeable
