Air filter K&N or UGREEN

K&N Air filter

So far, I haven’t had any trouble with the K&N air filter. The only thing I could see being an actual problem is if you don’t remember to clean it often enough.

Pros: no trouble so far
Cons: needs frequent cleaning

El filtro de aire también es importante, si pensás tener el carro por más de 5 años te recomiendo los lavables de K&N el carro de mi papá lo ha tenido por 10 años y le hacemos sus limpiezas a cada 50000 Km, el mío lleva cuatro y la misma historia, solo se compra el kit de limpieza.

Pros: lavables, fácil limpieza
Mileage: 50000 km

K&N Air filter

I've used these in a few cars and never went more than 50k miles between cleanings. You can feel the lack of power at full throttle in most vehicles when it's time, but someone told me that holding any air filter up to the sun or a bright light is a good way to tell the condition and it's been great advice.

Pros: good way to tell condition
Cons: less efficient filtration
Mileage: 50000 km

Used to live where I'd get a ton of leaf debris etc., aftermarket filters were crap (like half an inch out of spec size), and Toyota orginals were pricey, so I went to a washable K&N and haven't looked back.

Pros: washable, easy to clean
Cons: aftermarket filters crap
Vehicle: Toyota

I used K&N drop in filters as well as the K&N Typhoon intake on previous cars. I don't think the K&N drop in filter makes more than 2-3 hp. The K&N Typhoon intake might make 10 hp. It does sound good though (like all open air filter intake systems).

Pros: sounds good
Cons: minimal hp gain
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

These k&n air filters are trash. They basically dont filter at all. Thats how they achieve increased air flow.

Pros: increased air flow
Cons: dont filter at all

I am not a fan of K&N filters because they have to be cleaned and supposed to be air dried because blow drying can tear the media. I'll be damned if I'm going to notice my air filter is dirty and have to set aside a few hours of my day for it to dry in the sun before I can oil it and drive again, I rather just buy a $10 filter and be done.

Not to mention if you apply too much oil it can get into the MAF sensor and from what I've seen they also have less surface area than a paper filter, albeit they probably don't need the extra surface area, but it does mean they can clog faster.

Cons: inconvenient cleaning, MAF sensor risk, less surface area, clogs faster
