I have a cold air intake on my car. i'm pretty sure that it's time to be cleaning it. i was wondering how to about doing that or should i just go get another one?

 

I always just get another one.

 

If you dont want to buy a new one just buy a K&N recharging kit.... you put a hose inside the filter and flush the dirt out... then you soak it in the cleaner and let it dry.. then you spray on the protectant that is like oil... wait to dry and then put it back on!

 

^Only problem with that, is that not every filter works the same as a K&N. I'd check your filter's specs and make sure it's ok to do the recharge kit

 

Like 40 said check the filter and make sure that it can be used with the recharge kit, or you could just go buy a k&n filter that you know can be used and keep it for a while.

 

man the recharge kit is like $30cdn and a new filter is 20ish. you decide
peace

 

In Canada do you simply multiply our prices by 2 to get your prices?-----Most of the recharge kits here are $15

 

if you have a filter that can't be cleaned i agree go with a k&n or a aem
