If you go to KN website find the filter that fits your car copy that model number and go to Amazon and past it in the search bar I know you can find them alot cheaper I picked one up for like 39 bucks on Amazon for my Highlander. I think the cleaning kit was 10 bucks.

How do you like the filter? was there any change in the throttle response easier shifts or nothing more than the changing and cleaning period?

Ya I like it I notice a little difference in throttle response also the sound of the engine when I step on it sounds more throathy at higher RPM IMO. I went and bought one for my Explorer as well save some money in the long run. Havent cleaned it yet just go it about two weeks ago and the one for the explorer comes in today!

[Duckie the Assassin]

Will do hope the response is good on the camry though shifts already suck ass for an auto

Put one in last night on the cam its not bad but sounds and feels a bit off compared to the paper filter

I've had the K&N filter in for about 40 thousand miles. It makes a significant difference compared to paper, just because paper is great until you get close to the end of the life cycle which is typically only like 12,000 miles. The KN needs to be cleaned every 12,000 miles but..its cheaper then having to go buy a brand new filter every time, the cleaning kit is super simple just a cleaner you have to apply-sit-rinse then re apply new filter oil and your done.

Yra the shake. rinse. spray. and oil bit i got that just dont fully enjoy the feel of it seems a little less responsive vs the paper for me bafore way pop and pull after i put it in and ran a bit it was bang and yank not looking to replace anymore transmissions or engines on this car been through 3 of each as it is

[rnaz1017]

daaammmn 3??? How many miles you got on your car man?

I have a Gen4 2.2L Automatic. It has 210,000 Miles on it right now and still runs like new. I bought it new, have maintained it religiously since, it still has its original engine, trans, bearings, axle's etc. I've never had to replace anything non wear and tear on it. Even the cat converter lasted until it was damaged by a tow truck who towed me for "illegal" parking grrr.

For anyone wondering.
Starting off with Paper filters, change every 12k, or when the MPG dropped. Then switched to a KN filter at around 170,000 miles.

134,000 on the body is it damn cars problem city been through every part under the hood more than once along with horrid wiring throughout the car basically its a rolling hellhole broken seats doors damn near everything but those workers at the dealership are sneaky as hell every time i take my car something breaks after i pull off the lot and they deny and refuse all
