    for the last 10 years...once a year. I have two filters and I rotate them . Probably could get by once every two years as I have a garage queen and only drive the S4 six months out of the year.

    Whenever they become visually fouled. That's my indicator. When they start looking ugly I clean them. Its probably more then is needed but I like mine looking fresh. If you were into logging you can monitor the performance of your intake system by logging the delta of AMP_MES vs PDT_MES and that will indicate how free your intake is flowing.

    It's a pressure measurement. Ambient pressure vs the pressure at the inlet.
