That won’t happen if you were using a K&N oil filter. All these cheap brand filters are not sturdy and will collapse when you’re trying to take them off when stuck… either The Black K&N select filter or the white Premium filter will avoid this problem from happening…
I have used them for years and feel the car runs better. I use the K&N cleaning kit and their instructions on YouTube and have never experienced fouled MAF issues.
2020 wrx premium has 217000 miles, stock except K&N air filter. Change oil every 6000 miles and tap out and remove debris from air filter every 3000 miles and clean every 6000.
replaced OEM with K&N 6 months ago and have not had any issues
Best accessory for my Ignis was K&N Air Filter, it really changed the sound of engine which I really liked. Maybe it was Placebo affect but I felt the change in character of the car.
I can tell you for sure the K&N flows better. the new stock filter definitely made me crank the knob up for more fan speed. the flip side is that the K&N does NOT do a good job actually filtering anything the size of sand or smaller. you will also be able to smell every molecule of exhaust and exterior air using the the K&N. stock filter helps reduce the scent of "outside"
It's a K&N filter that's compatible with the LP5 and LZ0.
KN filters are gay, watch freedom worx YouTube video about Oem vs KN filters. You'll wanna swap right back!
No it’s not worth it.
K&N is awful at filtration just like up the testing. Get the AEM dry flow
