Has anyone cleaned their filter? How clean does the cleaning kit actually make it, or would it be easier and better to just buy a new one?

Cheers fella, very useful, however 50k miles is a long time:blink: i think ive bearly done 10k since it was fitted and its as black as :cursing:.......only checked the filter cause it seems to be idling a little low and has actually cut off at the lights?....or could there be another reason for this?
DJ Wozza Clean it mate, I did mine fairly recently, you can buy the kit from Ebay for about £10-£15
How many miles did you do before cleaning it mate?

DJ Wozza Hmmm about 30,000. Remember to reset the ECU after you re-fit the filter
filter was fitted around 2 years ago!!
So am i right in thinking that a dirty filter = low idle and possible cut off

24-02-2017, 04:09 AM #7For me, I would clean the K&N every service/oil change. Not a big job, and it should help the car keep running well. It could save you money too, i.e. via your fuel economy : biggrin:
