MAF fouling? Dealer service issues?
THanks!

Default No problems here

Put it in at 100 miles, now at 5000 miles with GIAC, TIP CHIP, and SS Exhaust. No problems, codes, nothing.

Lovin'it.

Default I've had the K&N for over 30 K and had -0- issues.

I think the main problem is people OVER-OIL the K&N and then don't let it dry. If you follow the cleaning and oiling directions, you should not have a problem.

When I took my car in for the 40 K service, they removed the K&N (put it in my trunk) and replaced it with a stock filter. Car felt the same.
