What It Is

This is a complete oil change and air filter maintenance kit for Cub Cadet XT1 LT42 lawn tractors and other models equipped with Kohler 5400 Series engines (KS530, KS540, KS590, KS595). It includes one air filter, one oil filter, and one quart of oil to perform a full engine service.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, check your engine model number—this kit fits Kohler 5400 Series engines only, not Kawasaki, Briggs & Stratton, or other brands. The air filter (part 22 083 01-S / 22 883 01-S) and oil filter (12 050 01-S / 490-200-K072) are OEM-style replacements for Cub Cadet XT1, XT2, and XT3 models with a 42-inch deck. Verify your mower’s deck size and model number on the frame tag. The oil is SAE 10W-30, so confirm your engine’s oil viscosity requirement (check the manual or oil cap). Measure the old air filter’s dimensions if unsure—this filter is rectangular, roughly 6.5 x 4.5 x 2 inches.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Parts are OEM-spec, not genuine Cub Cadet, but reviews show reliable fit and performance. The air filter is foam and paper—clean the foam pre-filter if your model has one.
• Installation: Easy for DIYers—takes about 15–20 minutes. No special tools needed beyond a socket for the oil drain plug and a filter wrench.
• Common gotcha: The kit includes only one quart of oil. The Kohler 5400 Series typically holds 1.5 quarts, so you may need to buy an extra quart separately.
• Check for debris: Before installing the new air filter, clean the air filter housing and check for oil leaks around the old filter.

Should You Buy It

Buy this kit if you own a Cub Cadet XT1 LT42 (or compatible model) with a Kohler 5400 Series engine and want a simple, cost-effective way to do a full oil change and air filter replacement. It’s a solid value for regular maintenance, but skip it if you need a genuine Cub Cadet part or your engine uses a different oil viscosity.
