HKS High Flow Oil Filter – Purple Limited Edition • MX-5 MK1 / MK2 / MK4 • 52009-AK005V

HKS Hybrid Sports High Flow Oil Filter – Purple Limited Edition • 52009-AK005V

Performance engine oil filter for Mazda MX-5 MK1 / NA, MK2 / NB and compatible MK4 / ND petrol engines, including selected 1.6L, 1.8L, 1.5L SKYACTIV-G and 2.0L SKYACTIV-G applications using the HKS Type 1 M20 × 1.5 spin-on oil filter arrangement.

The HKS Hybrid Sports Oil Filter is designed to provide effective engine oil filtration while minimising unnecessary oil-flow restriction. Developed for standard and performance-oriented engine applications, it combines an advanced filter medium with a reinforced internal structure and a magnetic particle-capture system.

This Purple Limited Edition version features the distinctive HKS purple finish, offering the same functional high-flow filtration concept in a special-edition appearance.

The filter uses a non-woven cloth and resin-fibre composite element designed for strength and low pressure drop. Enlarged oil inlet openings promote oil flow into the filter, while the reinforced internal frame helps maintain the integrity of the filter element during operation.

An integrated neodymium magnet captures small ferrous particles carried by the engine oil, supplementing the mechanical filter media as part of the engine's oil filtration system.

When to replace: Replace the engine oil filter during routine oil servicing, following engine repairs or at the servicing interval appropriate to the engine's use. Performance and track-driven vehicles may require more frequent oil and filter changes depending on operating conditions.

Fitment advice: Designed for vehicles using the compatible HKS Type 1 oil filter arrangement, with an M20 × 1.5 mounting thread. The oil filter must also match the engine's sealing surface, clearance requirements and filtration specification. Compatible MX-5 models are shown in the vehicle compatibility table.

Other items to consider: When carrying out an engine oil service, you may also want to purchase the correct engine oil, a new sump drain plug washer, a magnetic sump plug or other appropriate engine service components from MazSpec.

Useful tools / consumables: Appropriate oil-filter removal tool, sump drain plug socket, oil drain container, torque wrench, clean workshop cloths and the correct grade and quantity of engine oil.

Difficulty guide: DIY Difficulty: Easy to Moderate. Oil-filter replacement is a routine servicing operation, although access varies by vehicle. Suitable lifting and support equipment may be required.

Installation / service notes: Allow the engine oil to cool to a safe working temperature and remove the old oil filter using a suitable tool. Clean the filter mounting surface and ensure the old sealing gasket has been removed. Lightly lubricate the new filter gasket with clean engine oil and install the replacement filter in accordance with the manufacturer's tightening instructions. Refill the engine with the correct oil grade and quantity, start the engine and inspect for leaks. Recheck the engine oil level after allowing the oil to settle.
