Reviews of K&N parts For Business

P.S. this same Toyota dealership told me I needed a new air filter upon which I told him, “It’s a K&N...” he said oh, and walked back into the garage.

Rolled the dice and bought an Amazon Warehouse Chinese cold air intake for $42. Figured the bent aluminum tube was the most crucial part of the set up apart from the air filter so I bought a K&N air filter to replace the crummy one that comes with it. Makes some nice induction noises now.

Treat yourself to a washable K&N Cabin Filter. The filter and cleaning kit quickly pay for themselves. I clean mine every 6 months just cause.

I clean mine in a bucket with simple green, and re-oil with whatever motorcycle filter oil I have on my shelf. I do this once a year. Keep in mind, your filter does basically nothing after all the oil is saturated with dirt.I've had the recharge kits before and simple green is both cheaper and works better. I've been doing this for many years and have never had one degrade, as it is a very gentle cleaner.

The k&n cleaner has a lot of warning labels on it so I imagine it's a lot more powerful than soap and water. Plenty of dirty oil came out of mine when I cleaned it. I also rinsed mine with water and aired it out. Also need to re-oil the filter and let it dry in the sun and set in for ~ 12-24 hours to cure. Be careful on this step to not add too much oil.I plan on changing my K&N filter after ~3 years, just to be safe. I've had filters (from other brands) come apart on me in the past.

I've used AMSOIL Signature in my recent change in my 3.8 with a K&N Filter. I gotta say it's pretty damn good. Engine cranks right up and feels so much more smoother.

Personally i use these:

Oil filter is a 204-1 so for £8 it's worth buying K&N

And as for oil i use Shell Ultra 4T 10W40 (Fully synthetic). I use this in all my bikes as i find it really enduring and reasonably priced if you know where to look.

I bought the K&N at http://www.martelbrothers.com/customer/knstore.php . It is cheaper about $41 each. I called VW serviceman to make an appointment that I would like to install K&N filters, and he told me anytime.

K&N filter is not as good as OE and just about expensive.

Over cleaning a K&N does more harm than good. K&N's need dirt to be effective. Clean K&N's let through too much dirt, until they become effective.
