Also as cully says the oil on the filter can get sucked in and damage the MAF sensor. The reason most people change them is not being able to fit the standard air box with a FMIC.
Ok thanks again dum-dum, so you would advise just sticking with a standard purflux one?

Thanks for the reply, so I guess you use the standard air filter? Purflux isn't it?
I don't have a HDi, i run a DT with no filter .. not the best but meh, the noise and spool is epic
Cant believe your still condoning this after what happened t Max's turbo.
No filter is a good recipe for destroying turbos in just a few thousand miles and on the HDi it'll also destroy many many MAF sensors.
