I heard mixed rumours about this some day it trashes sensors other day it runs fine since I've had mine in I've noticed that its sometimes sluggish then other days it flies could this be caused by the filter also why does it ruin sensors ??
I changed mine to an ITG panel filter and passed on the K&N filter, I am not sure if it killed my maf sensor as my mate, I passed the filter on to. his car has been fine since day one.
They say its the oil coming off the filter, coats the wires on the maf causing it to fail or something like that, just use the paper one spend the money elsewhere
It's mot so much the filter itself that kills the MAF it's the oil that clogs it and therefore gives false readings
Right ok I gotcha I'll whip it out later and have a look if there's any sign of oil il stick the OEM one back in cheers guys
