Been using kn filters for 20 years this year.. Always been my first purchase when I get a new vehicle.. I've seen reviews stating they can be bad or not filter as good.. But I haven't seen anything in my oil samples that would suggest excess dirt is getting into the pistons and oil.. And my vehicles have gone 300k miles no issue.. I clean pretty often since I live in dusty west Texas usually twice a year.

I just got the Toyota Trd air filter.
I thought it was interesting because Toyota does no longer sell a cleaning kit. But right on the box as an official sticker, that actually says, use K&N cleaner, and oil. I suppose we know now that K&n makes these which is cool.

I have used K&N filters on my LPG powered Subaru and Mercedes 6 Cylinder engines for over 18 years, they totally kill the stuttering caused by LPG, at traffic lights and give a cleaner burn.
Just to calm my nerves, I have always used the foam pre-filters an all vehicles.
Just changing the ones on my Viano and S-Class, the Pre- Filters are worth their weight in Gold, after 60, 000 miles the filter itself has very little dirt or wear on them.
Highly recommend their use.
PS, Thanks K&N for totally curing the LPG stutter. I will use nothing else.

I have it installed on my adv350, can anyone advise me how often in terms of Km's should I be cleaning it ? Thank you for this video btw!

I keep my paper filter and put it in for a day, to let the fresh oiled K&N filter dry.

[jacobmajorana]

Should you oil the dirty side until the clean side is also salmon red?

[DBLDQ]

How long after spraying would you recommend to wait before installing back in the vehicle? Also, would you recommend leaving it oil side up or down during that time?

[tommykonsta]

Do you spray both sides of the filter with the oil or just one side lol. Doesn’t say that anywhere in any video in any place.

Should I not do this in the kitchen sink? And, It’s not an issue for me at the moment, but is it safe if you have a septic system?

[joeysalinas]

I cleaned the engine filter for the first time and a small piece of the rubber came off on the doesn't affect the seal.

[wckd]

Do you oil both sides or just the one side that was previously dirty?

[gamerrap]

Do I need to oil it if im putting it in my car for the first time?

[alicanerturk]

How often we should repeat this process?
