I've got a K&N filter in my '22 Sport 2.0T. No issues at the dealer, never even brought up.

If you're vehicle manufacturer has an extended change interval then this filter will work with that. Some Porsches have 20,000 mile changes intervals and this filter is able to last that interval. Do the oil change as is recommended by your manufacturer. The K&N oil filters are killer and treat your car well.
Get one from K&N and wash it every 6 months, lasts for many years
Pennzoil ultra platinum 5w-20 winter and 5w-30 summer Fram synthetic endurance oil filter
I’ve also tried the new K&N motor oil 5w-30 love it
I have and like the K&N filter that drops in the factory housing, i like that you can just clean it and put it back in. You won’t notice any difference power or fuel milage wise.
I had a 2014 Ford fusion with a 2.5l engine and put one in and I could definitely notice a difference. Plus it is a lifetime filter so you'd never have to replace it again. Only clean and refill with oil.
The K&N high flow filters actually make a large difference... IF and ONLY IF you upgrade the intake and delete the OEM airbox with it. If you plan to keep the OEM intake and airbox, it will make not much of a difference.
I've run them on basically everything I've owned for the past 15 years. People hate them because they claim the oil fouls the MAF and that they let in more junk. I've never had a MAF fail and I've had two F-150s go over 200,000 miles on them with their original motors. My current F-150 has 239,000 and counting, no problems with it. Why buy them? I do it because they're re-usable. I think the K&N for my current F-150 was $45 when I got it, and the Motorcraft filters are $10-12. So over time it will save money, kind of, if you don't mind the work. Would I do it again? Nah. I'm done with them because it *is* kind of a pain in the butt to clean and oil them all the time. On two vehicles they added a bit of pleasing intake noise but again, eh. No big deal. I wouldn't waste the money. Just get the manufacturer filter and swap it out every year.
I refuse to buy K&N after one failed and burst apart on my Honda CB1100 a couple of years ago.
Second, these things suck! Buy a Non-Oiled cold air intake instead. If this is a Planted ad, K&N even has one, I have it on my TRDOR. Third, I am a dealer parts guy as my career... And, yes, I Know better. And yet I STILL over oiled my K&N filter and killed an expensive Mass Air Flow sensor on my truck. So I will Never use an oiled filter again. Old technology, imho.
