K&N Filters

[Casius]

Hey just looking to get some info on how many people are running K&N air filters and if problems arise often. I know with a MAF the air sensor can get buggered up cause of the oil on the filter.
Please let me know

[FromS60toB61.8t]

i ran K&N before getting intake and it was fine

Installed mine 3 days go, no problems yet, and you shouldnt have any either.

if your worried , buy the non-oiled version.

I got the pre-oiled panel filter the week after I got my car (~7months maybe?), haven't even thought about it since.

What's the part number for that?

The only one I can find is for part number 33-2209, and it doesn't say if it's pre-oiled or not.

If you're worried about the oil, place the new filter on some paper towels for a day or two the remove the excess oil.

2 years with K&N no problems

I ordered AFE Pro-DryS OEM drop in.
I like it so far. I did notice more intake/DV noise and the no oil worries/cleaning are quite nice . Price wasn't bad either...I think somewhere around $40.
My only complaint is that it took like 3-4 weeks to get to me.

i've had mine for a while and haven't had any problems with it yet

i have mine for about 7 month, works fine, looks like i got better milage, better sound for sure. Thing i like about it, its twice thinner than stock paper one

the only K&N problem is people over oiling them.... when done properly they are fine.
I run an AFE pro-dryS and love it
