K & N Air filters

Postby saneman » Tue Jan 05, 2010 1:27 am

Has anybody with a petrol MK5 fitted a K&N filter ? ( 190 lwb high roof 2.0 )
I have used the K&N filter element on some of my cars but never the bolt on kit.
Been searching around ebay without any luck.

I have been told I have a mondeo engine :o
my reg is w801uav if anyone could kindly confirm this for me please. :?

Might have more luck picking up the K&N for a mondeo rather than a transit :)

That engine was used in the later Sierras, 1990(ish) onwards and is the DOHC motor. I don't think that the FWD Mondeos used it at all :?

I dont want the element. I had an accident and the air filter box was smashed, could only find diesel boxes which the mechanic adapted to fit for me. (bodged up) so I actually have a diesel vans air filter :(

So I have a 2.0 DOHC from a Sierra ?
:o :shock:

It's from the Granada Bug-Eye shape or early Galaxy but the 2.0 not 2.3 version. :wink:
