quadro_bikeLike most cars, your Honda comes standard with a disposable paper air filter. Choosing to replace your old disposable filter with a K&N Honda air filter model makes a lot of sense. Although the initial cost is much greater, K&N filters are re-usable. Instead of throwing them away and buying another, creating more waste for our over-burdened planet and another drain on your pocket book, you simply wash the filter and put it back. In the long run, you’ll save money, and you’ll be saving the planet too.
Selecting the Right K&N Filter
Select your K&N filter based on your Honda’s type and engine size. For example, for the 2008 Honda Accord, K&N air filters comes in three basic styles. For a 2.4L engine, use either the high performance 33-2402 filter, or the high-flow air filter, 33-2276. For a 3.5L engine, use K&N lifetime performance filter, 33-2403.
If you drive an SUV, like the Honda CRV, you can make up for some of that carbon footprint by using a K&N air filter. The EPA recommends reusable air filters as effective waste reduction options. The 2.4L engine Honda CRV, K&N air filter 33-2377 even comes with lifetime replacement- now that’s what we call re-usable!
All K&N air filters are backed by the official K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty, and unlike most warranties, the “Limited” has nothing to do with your car’s age. Bring in an original 1976 Honda, and they’ll still give you the Million Mile Warranty. Always looking to up their sustainability, K&N also makes their reusable, drop-on design air filter for hybrid vehicles. If you’ve got a 1.3L engine Honda Insight, K&N air filter 33-2433 will increase the efficiency of your hybrid’s combustion process, and get you more torque and horsepower. Once you’ve selected and purchased the right K&N filter for your Honda, you’re ready to install it.
Installing Your K&N Air Filter
Raise your vehicle’s engine hood, and make sure you use the hood support to prop it securely in place- nobody wants mashed fingers to be part of this process. Next, go ahead and take your new K&N Honda https://www.amazon.com/BNX-TruFilter-14x24x1-Filter-6-Pack/dp/B0CKWHF895 out of the box and check out the shape. Depending on the model, it may be square, rectangular, or round. The shape of your K&N filter helps you locate where it fits within that technological morass you’ve noticed under your hood. Remember that match-the-shapes-to-the-hole game kids play? Find the plastic box shaped the same your air filter, and check for a large-diameter hose coming out of the top half- you found the air filter housing. Flip back the metal clips holding it closed on all sides, then lift up the top as far as it will go, but don’t force it. Remove and toss your old paper filter, and replace it with your K&N filter, flat side up. Set the top firmly back in place and latch it down with the spring-loaded metal clips. Check to make sure the top is seated evenly and all clips are fastened. Congratulations, you’re done. Doesn’t it feel good to save money and the world at the same time?
