vs
Cabin filter K&N or OEM FORD
we have one. i just washed it. i use the dawn powerwash spray. first, tap against a hard object like the wall, to get out the big stuff, then spray, rinse. comes out nice and white/clean. then i hit it with my ryobi blower to push out all the excess water, and put it back. you might notice a slight increase in airflow thru the vents. i have been using the k&n cabin filters on several cars, they work well
Pros: easy to clean, increased airflow
So every car I get an in cabin K&N filter which is washable lifetime guaranteed as well as either a drop in intake filter or one for whatever aftermarket intake I go with. It will pay for itself in like two washes plus better gas mileage.
Pros: washable, lifetime guaranteed, better mileage
K&N washable cabin air filter $45 Had this one for like 6 years I believe. Just wash it, dry it and reinstall….again and again and again…
Pros: washable, reusable
Vehicle:
Subaru
Just swapped mine with a reusable K&N because I travel for work so much and it looked like this very quickly ????
Pros: reusable, good for travel
Cons: gets dirty quickly
I'm thinking of picking up a K&N washable cabin filter, actually 2 one to use right away and the other to use for backup, when the 1st one get super dirty...
Pros: washable, reusable
Cons: gets super dirty
I really like my K&N reusable cabin filter. It's made very heavy duty.
Pros: heavy duty, reusable
The K & N ones are very nice quality and make sense if you are going to keep the car for many miles. Once you buy them you will look at it and think man all the other ones are bad quality.
Pros: nice quality, long lasting
The VF2074 fits just as well as the oem, you should be able to set it in the oem door / latch. I have it on mine with no issues.
Pros: fits just as well
Cons: no issues
Part number: VF2074
Yay. For cost and availability
They are cheap compared to others. K&N’s does not clean as well as I want it to and the HKS filters are super hard to come across (charcoal nano micro fiber????)
Pros: cheap, available
Cons: doesn't clean well
LHM Ford pulled this on me recently too. Had a bunch of 80k mile maintenance done that I didn’t want to do myself, and the guy called me up telling me our cabin air filter was filthy and really needed replacing.
Cons: filthy, needed replacing
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 80000 km
