Just a friendly reminder to clean out your airbox and filters. Amazing how much stuff gets in there.

If you make sure the filters are not overoiled, you shouldn't get a CE light nor foul your MAF. I run BMC F1 filters.

I hit the K&N filters with an airhose before I put them in and wiped off all the oil that I could and the check enginge light still came on. Currently the stock filters are in and no check engine light. Very strange as I have never had an issue with K&N filters before. Maybe it's time for BMC filters.

I have a carbon fiber air box with BMC filters on mine ... never had a CEL ... some 63's have no problems running after market filters, some throw CEL's ... Luck of the draw I guess
