As a sequel to this post, I ended up cleaning my K&N filter again, this time after 12,000km; procedure and stuff used to clean and oil the filter were the same as in my earlier post.
Observations
1. The filter was more fouled up at the top half of the filter towards the tapered edge
2. A lot of dirt was trapped - showed up in the number of washes/rinses during cleaning
Progress
MAF Sensor after 12,000km
The "clean" (outlet) side of the dirty filter
The dirty inlet side of the dirty filter - note more clogging towards the taper end
Dirty filter inlet side against light
Rinse water after rounds 4, 5, 6, 7 in that order (forgot to click pics of Rounds 1 to 3)
Clean water at end of round7
Oiling the filter after leaving it to naturally dry for over 24 hours - extra time since sun was playing hide and seek
Clean filter against light
Before vs After - at the same place against same light
