Mark_Dj Got my new air filter today and a cheap price it was :razz: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Astr ... 2a13e90d67 It looks well oiled up inside the packet, hope it does not make my MAF sensor fook up :crazy: . This is the first after market filter I have bought. Hope it's good :buffer
Matt Look exactly the same as mine Mark. They come pre-oiled, and you'll not have to worry about it for a good couple of years now.
Mark_Dj Any tips mate, do I just fit it straight on or let it breath out the packet for a while notsure.gif
Mark_Dj Did you notice it's not as tight fit as the old one? Mine has a little play but nothing to worry about. The old one was a nice tight fit
Mark_Dj Quick video of it Matt fitted in my airbox. I have managed to damage it already from fitting the torque bolt onto the top right hand corner, nothing to worry about though :crazy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeLBubseBYk
Matt It's secured to the top of the air box Mark, not the bottom, which is why it looks loose in that video. When I refit mine, I put it into the lid, and then re fit the lid to the bottom half of the air.box. Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
Mark_Dj Ah, I thought when I was lifting the lid off it seemed to be stuck in the top half of the airbox. Well it's too dark to do anthing else tonight. I will have another go when she comes back home in the car from her work tomorrow. Cheers
Mark_Dj Well it's fitted lovely, just like you said mate to fit it in the top section first. Matt did yours smell at first when you fitted it? I was out today in it and I smelt a new smell from my car notsure.gif .
