Problem with K&N cold air intake!

[jb12]

heres a couple pics i already had, when i run the car w/ the holes lined up, it sputters a little then shuts down. the little arrow on the maf is also pointing toward the filter on the pic where the holes line up.

I'll have to look for my arrow, but I know for sure that the opening in the MAF where the actual sensor is at is supposed to point towards the filter.

interesting. well the arrow on my stock points to the throttle body, so let me know how yours is set up please haha.

Mine points towards the throttle body, 2.0T

You can try putting it back to stock to see if that fixes it..

 

[jb12]

yeah thats how ive had it. k&n either drilled the holes wrong or gave me the wrong pipe or something but w/e i can find a way to fix it

Does it run normally with the stock one back on? I'd give that a shot before you decide the k&n unit is messed up.

Does it look like this installed?

 

[jb12]

yeah except the maf doesnt fit that way, it is upside down on mine lol

Talk to k&n then and see if they'll give you a replacement.
