Default FS: BMC Panel Filter

I am selling my BMC panel filter that I recharged (Cleaned and oiled) not too long ago. I have recently upgraded to a new intake system and have no need for this filter. The winning bidder will win the filter which I will clean and re-oil prior to shipping, the original box and original stickers.

Starting bid: $50
Instant: $75

Other the cost saving of a reusable filter, did you find that the new panel made any actual noticable difference in performance?

I recently bought a BMC panel filter for my GTI polo.

Good quality, good fit.

Ive had the filter for around 30,000km(30,000km service intervals for filter). They are resuable and should have a life as long as the car.

Performance wise I found it slightly more responsive but as with any panel filter don't expect anything special. Although if you apply the sticker that adds 20kw

You can use a K & N cleaning kit & also save $$$ my 2 cents worth.

Autobarn is a BMC stockist. Hate dealing with them, but you can get genuine BMC cleaning kits from them (or at least I have in the past)
