Removed my air filters yesterday. 2 years since last changed. Very dirty and need to replace before heading south next week.
I can order on line and get them by Wednesday. But I am wondering whether to purchase standard paper elements or change to K&N.
I know that oil basted elements can do damage to the MAF, but wondering if any others have experience of K&N filters.
What I did do today was drive the car without the air filter box on and the acceleration was amazing. What a difference.
Just shows how restrictive filters can be on the V6.
