*A buddy of mine wanted to check out my CAI last night, I was doing something at the time, so I just told him to go pop the hood and check it out. Well, he yelled over to me, that's cool, but where's the air filter. I told him behind the passenger headlight. Well, it was behind the passenger headlight, after he again persisted he couldn't find the air filter I went over to the truck to show him, and I'll be damned, but the air filter was GONE!!! The good thing is that I changed my oil a couple of days ago, and I hope I would have noticed that, so I don't think the filter has been off long. Just make sure you guys keep an eye out on yours!!!
lol. i noticed the smaller face of my cone filter (the part that points down), has some rust on it. not cool. so, i went ahead and replaced it with a k&n cone.
ya im gonna get the one from ebay, but im gonna put a K&N filter on it. only problem is that i heard if you get the one with the metal tubing it makes a rattle sound.
no rattling sound for me. i mean, there is two rubber joint/sleeves...there should be no reason for it to rattle cause those rubber things will absorb everything. it would rattle if it's against something though.
I don't have a rattle from my metal tubed K&N series 77. But the metal tube DOES really echo the sound of the EGR valve opening & closing.Sounds a lot like an exhaust leak, and it's a lot louder than CAI's that utilize a plastic tube...
