Cabin filter Wix or K&N
Replaced cabin air filter w k&n high performance filter in prep for my 60k, car feels so much faster now. Butt dyno is reading 10+ hp gains!
Pros: car feels faster
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 60000 km
Treat yourself to a washable K&N Cabin Filter. The filter and cleaning kit quickly pay for themselves. I clean mine every 6 months just cause.
Pros: washable, pays for itself
Vehicle:
Subaru
I use a charcoal Wix filter. It works really nice, even for filtering out smells a bit. And I drive a lot on dirt roads and it helps clean that up too.
Pros: filters out smells
As for the cabin air filter. I usually go with WIX.
I went with Wix. Works well.
Pros: works well
Since I was in the area, and needed to swap out the cabin air filter, I opted for one from K&N. I have upgraded to the B5.5 filter housing so that is why this should work. There is a slight length difference but it does fit.
Pros: it does fit
Cons: slight length difference
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B5
The HVAC smelled really musty from sitting so long, so I replaced the cabin air filter with a new Wix one.
Pros: new cabin air filter
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
