yea well the maf is touchy and sometimes the oil on the filter gets on the sensor. you might want to get some maf cleaner and clean it up just in case. i use to have k&n on my car and never had issues.

How do you use these and how often?

With GREEN Filters, you can also order the Cleaning/Recharge Kit #2000.

K&N also has a Recharger/Service Kit # 99-5000.
