Intake Cone cleaning

MK335i · 11-03-2014, 12:43 PM

I have the dual cone intake setup and was wondering how to go about cleaning them. Is it similar to the K&N process?

Any advice helpful thanks.

I do use the K&N cleaning kit.

Yes
This should probably be posted in maintenance section FYI

K&N kit works great, just make sure not to over-oil the filters. Although this is less of a concern when there isn't a MAF sensor.

with the amount of oil dumped into the intake stream, I'd say the filter oil is not a concern!
