Best Price, June 26, 2007
This review is from: K&N 33-2342 High Performance Replacement Air Filter (Misc.)
All my vehicles are running on K&N filters. This is the best price anywhere. 2006 Honda Civic gained 3 miles per gallon, from 39 to 42 mpg highway driving. Shipping cost are within reason. Thank You.

It works as advertised, but don't expect mileage to jump., July 23, 2008
This review is from: K&N 33-2342 High Performance Replacement Air Filter (Misc.)
I have used K&N filters on my last 3 vehicles over the last 7 years ranging from pickup truck to sport car and they do work to allow more air into the intake. On every application I used these filters, I can tell the throttle response is faster and my mileage did improve slightly - by about a mile per gallon or so.
When I read some of the reviews on the various sites, some drivers say they get 3 - 4 mpg more. I've never found this to be true. If it was, with the price of gas in CA being over $4.50 per gallon, I'd think all the SUV dealers and automotive manufacturers would put these filters into all their vehicles to push their SUVs out the door - wouldn't you?
Most likely, the reviewer's car was probably new and was still being broken in and the increase in 3 - 4 mpg was attributed to the breakin period along with a little boost from the K&N.
I like the K&N filters and have used them for a long time in all my cars. They save a lot on filter costs over the life of the car and gets me a little bit more on mpg. They never caused any problems in any of the cars I owned, but I don't drive off road or in dusty rural areas either.
Hope this helps.

Great Reusable Filter! Highly Recommended!, December 5, 2010
This review is from: K&N 33-2342 High Performance Replacement Air Filter (Misc.)
After being informed by a Honda Dealership that I needed to replace my air filter (and them informing me that they wanted to charge me +$75 to do this), I decided purchase and install this K&N Air Filter in my 2006 Honda Civic EX in an effort to save money.
Included in packaging:
1. K&N Filter
2. A sticker to place on your air filter housing that reminds mechanics not to replace and throw away your K&N Filter (the filter is reusable: simply wash, dry, and replace when dirty).
3. Instructions and care information
The installation of this filter was extremely easy and took less than 5 minutes to complete (no tools required).
Upon installation, I immediately noticed a slight change in performance in my Honda Civic. I am averaging 1-3 additional mpg per fill up after the installation.
The true beauty of this filter is that it is reusable. Whenever you are due to change your air filter, simply remove your K&N filter, run water through it in order to remove the dirt build up, and let it dry before reinstalling. Buy this filter and you should never have to replace your air filter in your car again for as long as you own your car ($ saver).
If you are not a "do it yourself" type person, I would still buy this filter on Amazon and have your local mechanic install it for you. Shoot...hire me and I will install it for you (sorry I don't come cheap)!
Sure this filter is more expensive than most other filters out there, but if you purchase this filter you should never have to replace your air filter ever again. This filter will not only save you money in the long run, but it will improve your mpg performance (roughly 1-3 mpg for me).
I highly recommend this filter!
