As far as I know, all Airaid filters are oiled. They come pre-oiled, and they sell the oil and cleaning kits.

I bought an Airaid for my '05 1500 QC with the 4.7L, as it was a snap-in installation vs. the amount of fitting required for the K&N. Plus, it was less $$$. So far I have no complaints.

Has anyone used a K&N cleaning/oiling kit on an Airaid or vice versa? I can get a K&N kit for free, but I have the Airaid intake.
