The manufacturer lists it for the 2006-2010 Toyota Yaris, 2007-2010 Toyota Corolla, 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe, and 2008-2009 Scion xD. Its washable, reusable design lets buyers skip the disposable paper element that comes with the car. The manufacturer says the filter aims to allow high air flow while maintaining filtration levels critical to ensure long engine life, and it lists filtration efficiency up to 99%.

The main reason to pay more than a basic paper filter is the reuse and the warranty. The filter can be cleaned and re-oiled instead of being thrown away, and the manufacturer backs it with a No-Hassle Lifetime Limited warranty. The manufacturer's specification lists a re-oiling amount of 0.83 oz (25 ml), so buyers should plan to keep a K&N recharge kit on hand. Horsepower and airflow gains are not quantified here because the manufacturer's own spec sheet did not confirm a number; buyers who want a figure should check the manufacturer directly.

Swapping this filter is a basic job. Open the airbox, remove the factory element, and wipe the sealing surfaces clean. The filter is engraved with "This side up," and the engravings should face upward into the air box, which is the orientation the manufacturer's panel-filter sheets call for. Close the lid securely, then place the manufacturer's reminder decal on the airbox so a future mechanic does not discard the reusable filter. The manufacturer's sheets for comparable panel filters also say these steps must be repeated each time the filter is serviced, so keep the orientation and sealing steps in mind at every cleaning.
