Hey MAV,

I was at Four Seasons when a person had come to fit a K n N in the Indica buttt the Four Seasons guy said that the car being a diesel will become tooo noisy, butttt he did a install for a Indica.

Cheers

My God!

this is frightning...

whatever written here, does it apply only to diesel cars or petrol cars are affected same way?

I am planning to fit K&N OE replacement filter (not free flow) on my year old WagonR this weekend but before that trying to find all pros & cons. I was under impression that it will improve FE and performance (or may be not

) but I will be mentally satisfied at least.
However, if by any chance its going to cause any harm to my car then I am of out of here.

Please help me take right decision...

Hey,
I too have an indica dls 04.I have fitted a book type fliter.The performance is good and the efficiency is up by 1 Km to a litre.The mechanic says cone type filters are not suitable for these kind of economy diesel cars.
