Question Air filters for my V12 TT?

Who makes high-flow replacement filters for the stock paper element ones??....anybody? Apparently, GREEN is having "production issues" with that filter and isn't shipping any at the moment.

Thanks in advance for any input.

I am interested in this also, I have also read something about K&N filters not being good long term for our cars.

Any AMG Thats Around..
As we know Green Does not offer any filters yet for the V12TT motors..

BUT

i got Something...

BMC REPLACEMENT FILTER - FLAT FILTER

BMC has developed a particular production system based on soft rubber moulding which produces the familiar BMC red filters. They are made in one single piece with no welded joints in the corners, thus avoiding breaking risks.



Available for
MAYBACH: 57 (W240) - 62 (W240)
MERCEDES: CL - S CLASS - SL

for the TTV12 Motors..

600 V12 W220 [YOU MUST ORDER 2 FILTERS] 500 02>05 Flat
65 AMG W 220 [YOU MUST ORDER 2 FILTERS] 612 03>05 Flat
600 V12 W221 [YOU MUST ORDER 2 FILTERS] 517 06> Flat
65 AMG W 221 [YOU MUST ORDER 2 FILTERS] 612 06> Flat

Is the air box the same as the 600? if so on Demon Tweaks web there is
a K&N filter for a 600 about 50 dollars.

Don't bother with K&N if BMC is available. The BMC filter is a lot like a K&N but built from higher quality materials.

Hi, if you type in GOOGLE the words Demon Tweaks UK than go to
tuning you will see them. I am not sure that The BMC filter is better, never
seen one, but the K&N I know is well made.

***Important***

I was just notified.... Seems like the pricing was incorrect... Whoever got their credit card info to me is safe... I'll keep the price...

But the real price is $110 Per Filter... Not a set of filters.... so the price of a Set is $220!

Like i said whoever got their info to me is safe at the $110 per set...

Have a great day!
