Do you know if K&N ones are oil based? Or Neuspeed ones?http://www.awesome-gti.co.uk/vw%20golfmk4/engine.htmlI think the k&n panal filters are oil based not sure on the othersYou'd think Awesome wouldn't sell an induction kit for the 1.8T that they know will damage it...I agree mate but if your filter is oil based it WILL clog up the maf sensor which IIRC costs about £90 Well before I buy it I'll give them a ring and check. They have different kits for different cars, so I would imagine the one for the 1.8T would do no harm to it. It looks like it's possible to fit an induction kit oneself, but I really do have 0% knowledge of fiddling with cars!

Reckon I'd have to tell the insurance company? all I'm doing is replacing the air filter with a better one, technically
Hmm fair enough, I bet they charge a lot more for that too.
