KN Filter 33-2370 2012 Camry SE

KN 33-2370, I have KN filters in all my cars. This is for a 2012 Camry and I'm pretty sure it will fit 2011 and possibly 2013. If you install it on a Toyota you will see a non-removable cotton/carbon filter at the top of the airbox. It's a post filter and I believe it has something to do with emissions from new Toyotas. You cannot and should not remove this filter. Installing a KN filter will get rid of the large removable cotton paper filter at the bottom of the tray. This filter is usually a Denso brand filter and has very strict limits. When you receive the KN you will find that it is not as high as the original equipment filter, which is normal, so don't be alarmed. After installation, your computer will need to relearn itself, and this may take up to three key starts. so that he understands that he can now get a little more air. I would say you will notice an improvement within three days. Some noticed the improvement right away. Most hearing tested drivers will also notice that their engine sounds a bit more aggressive here, this is normal and will not do any harm. Unless you're blowing air through an exhaust like you would on a Borla or Flowmaster, the "more power" feeling isn't as strong because the airflow isn't being emitted more freely. However, you get more air on the intake side, which in itself is normal. You can also increase fuel consumption by adjusting KN. Mileage depends on driving conditions and how you drive your car. When it's time to clean the filter, use Kit 99-5000. First clean the filter according to the instructions, then let it dry completely and then oil it. DO NOT over-lubricate the filter - follow directions. With proper handling and cleaning, these filters can likely last longer than the life of a car. The filter is designed to allow more air into the engine and thanks to the use of cotton and light oil, it catches more and less dirt particles than a conventional filter. If you live in a dusty environment, you will need to clean the filter more often than if you use it outdoors. These filters will not void your warranty and will help extend the life of your vehicle.

Pros
  • ECO FRIENDLY: Using reusable, washable products helps reduce replacement waste - K&N filters last longer than 10 disposable filters
