Mazda Oil Filters Date Code

[Baracoa]

Can someone help me decipher the date code on some Mazda OE Oil filters for the 2.5 engine. These are the ones made in Thailand, # 1WPE-14-302. The codes on two different ones are: HE24C21 and DE26C06. Both were recently purchased from a Mazda Dealer.

I also have another Mazda OE Oil filter for the turbo 2.5 engine, filter # 1WP6-14-302, made in Thailand, with date code HE20C07. Again, this was recently purchased (around 6 months or less).

Please notice that only the first, second, and fifth digits are letters on all filters. The rest are numbers.

Thanks.

The turbo filter should be 1WPY-14-302, it was previously PY8W. Not sure on the date codes but those are the most current numbers.

You are correct on filter number for the turbo. I made a mistake when typing it. Thanks for letting me know these date codes are current

The 1WPY filters were actually on backorder for a while. I had a bunch on hand, but it had me worried for a bit.

Good to know. I usually have at least two on hand for the turbo and the non turbo Mazdas we have
