james_88 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Hi all, just wondering where i can purchase a K & N air filter for my G60? Tried looking through PVW but no success! Is the K & N filter the best one to use or is there a better filter i should go for? Cheers, James Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted January 20, 2006 Personally I would just use the VAG oem paper filter, as it's been reported on the German Radoforum, that the paper one still filters best from the G-Lader's point of view. On a normally aspirated engine, you can happily use the K&N or Pipercross, as any crap, that still manages to get through will be burnt off by the engine, but on the G60, you've got the G-Lader sitting inbetween the filter element and the engine. Any crud making it through the filter will hit a Lader potentially rotating at approx. 12,000 revs ! The paper-based filter is still the best in terms of filtering. If you still do decide to use a K&N, regularly clean and oil it. I've thrown my K&N out again, and replaced it with the VAG oem paper filter.
