I have found that the OEM part number for the oil filter is 1142512446. However if you go to the partsbin.com it comes up as A6002-117442 which is the kit.

Is this the same?

I am a military member at an APO address overseas.

Can someone tellme were to order the Oil filter online for a resonable price and they will ship USPS instead of UPS?

I have serched this site and the net for about an hour. I need some help and ordering my oil filter so I can change my oil.

Any other tips from recent Oil Changers???

Thanks for the help in advance. William.

THey might be referring to the fact that the oil filter includes the o-ring which seals the oil filter cover.
If you cannot find anything else, I would try it...

Order it from classic, they ship, I bet they could ship USPS if you agreed to not worry about insurance or tracking. http://www.driveclassicmini.com/index.asp You should be able to just ask for the Filter, or the whole kit if you want it.

I forgot to add, the main reason to order from classic is if you ask for the 'mini cooper online' discount, they'll discount most any part you want 10-20%, for that reason, they ship a bunch of stuff all the time.

Order the kit - it comes with an O-ring you need to replace when doing the change. Prices vary - I paid $7.45 at Flow MINI in Winston-Salem. Don't know if they ship USPS, but their phone number is (336) 788-3333 if you want to call them.

William, I have the box for a Cooper S filter in front of me and the part # is 11 42 7 512 446 which is the same as yours except for the extra 7. It came with the o-ring (and I've done two changes--both had rings in the box.)

My understanding is that the oil filter will ALWAYS comes with an o-ring. I 2nd the motion for classic auto campus, as they advert. discounts on all OEM parts.

HTH, Jeff
