Juz found out some info from K&N website,

We recommend you check your air filter every 30,000 miles (48k km), however, under most street conditions the filter will not require cleaning until 50,000 miles (80k km) of continuous use. And yes, we’ve heard the stories of customers who ran their K&N filter for 100,000 miles (160k km) without a cleaning, but we believe cleaning after 50,000 miles (80k km) to be the most beneficial service life without sacrificing air flow.

I've serviced mine at Speedworks for RM8.40 every 4 month or whenever I free, whichever comes first laugh.gif .

To wash yourself, you need to buy the re-oil kit. Cost you about RM60. !st step is to use the spray the de-greaser to remove the old oil and wash in with tap water. After it dried off, re-oil it back but make sure you didn't use too much oil, else it will be sucked into your engine. I always re-oil after 4 month because my previous ride uses the open pod K&N. And it will be dirty quite fast. sweat.gif

Sphiroth said he paid RM247 and diy. So, when the shop quoted me RM290, i said ok lor...... hehe. Because i knew the trouble involved. Have to remove 3 point front strut. then have to refit it after the filter is in place. I think RM40 workmanship is decent, considering the amount of work.


Added on August 4, 2008, 11:17 pm

I've not seen the 2point front strut by UR. But if the thickness is the same, I think it will still cause some problems when u try to remove the top filter box screw. nvermind lor... let the workshop do it for u lah... since they're already charging u for installation. biggrin.gif

The problem will arise later when you want to re-oil your air filter just like my previous ride (also got 3 point UR bar). End up going to Speedworks for re-oiling. To troublesome to DIY.

What's the differences between branded and non branded extractors.
As i know those branded ones damn expensive..
*
The branded one has been designed through proper R&D while the unbranded are mostly imitation of the branded counterpart. While it is impossible to copy 100% of the design due to machining and materials, the imitation looks almost similar to the original one.

About the performance, let say the branded one give you 10hp increase while the imitation can only give you 6hp, does that justify the amount of money you spend to get the branded one?

if you are talking about cheap immobiliser, perhaps

a lil bit off topic, i have seen one Merc S320, where the driver has lost the key. the car was totally locked out. called Merc specialist, armed with laptops and lengthy cables, they only managed to open the door, but not start the engine. mind you, these are Bintang Cycle & Carriage punya specialist. they can't even push the car since the brakes are locked. solution? angkat kren masuk lori, hanta merc centre. i dunno what happen next. the car was at the same place for 2 whole days... talk about damn good immobilisers...

Merc car keys are made by laser cutting. If you lost your keys, you need to order one set from its German HQ. nod.gif

Btw, open pod's airflow is better than drop in 1.
Open pod is more for high speed usage while drop in is more for better pickup.

Only with proper heatshield and CAI. Else, might be worse. nod.gif

got method to patch up the cracks one ?  later need change the whole windscreen .. die .. not cheap

As long as it didn't crack the 2nd layer, it should be fine. But if it cracked until the 2nd layer, better get it 'sealed' fast, else dirt will go in and when you 'sealed', it will leave a mark.

Those 'Dr Cermin' will charge you about RM50 for small crack.

Thats due to the lowering spring I've used. No problem with bump except some of those 'self made' bump at housing are. sweat.gif
