I just wanted to know if its risky running a panel filter, I have heard due to them being oiled it can mess up the air flow sensor? Is there any truth behind this or has anyone been using one hassle free and fancy sharing the brand and feedback? Thanks

I have been running with a K&N oiled filter for almost 3 years on my current 250 - no issue. Prior to that I had a K&N in an IS200 for almost 3 years no issue and before that I had one in a Vauxhall with no issues. My wife has one in her Vauxhall (2 years) no issue.

You can initially tell they do have an effect on acceleration but as you get used to it then you don't notice it.

I would recommend them. One thing is that I tend to clean mine (wash and re-oil) every year or so as i drive dusty farm roads so it tends to pick the dust up but i like to keep it clean anyway.
