      Yup, that`s the K&N panel filter for the 1.6 ehdi engine, in case folk are wondering if it will fit their car.I have one in mine and is a perfect replacement for the oem filter.

            No, I wouldn`t faf about with that,if it needs replacing I won`t clean it, at EuroCarParts prices,I will bin the old one and get another,I don`t want to make mine last a million miles as it says you could do on the packaging!

              I have exactly the same filter that i took out of my 90 was going to put it in the 115 but i really don't see any point, very little difference if any and more chance of your oil turning in to sandpaper from the debris it allows through, probably end up selling mine on here too. For the K&N lovers. Also don't go mad with the
              servicing oil because i guarantee you will end up knackering your MAF sensor if you go overboard.

                Yeah I remember reading that the MAF sensor can be fooked by too much oil when it's cleaned. TBH I can't be bothered with the hassle....

                  Yes,I heard also that over oiling the K&N filter could do more harm than good!

                    Definitely, I'm tempted but if I did get one I wouldn't risk re-oiling it....

                      Considered piper cross filter? You don't need to clean it with oil

                        Worth noting,but I would consider just replacing the K&N filter and leaving oiling a filter to the experts!

                          It is not difficult at all to clean and reoil a K&N filter. Just Follow the directions no more no less.

                            Really ? I've read several reports of sensors being stuffed by the oil used on them cyclone ?

                              Has it happened that a maf sensor got screwed up? yes. AND all user fault! from over oiling if they just read and followed the bloody directions they would never have had an issue. The product itself is fine
