Ring whoever you get it serviced by and ask them Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/62396-fg-xr8-lower-airbox-and-snorkel/#findComment-940095 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the box and filter are easy changes if you ever need to head into Ford at some point Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/62396-fg-xr8-lower-airbox-and-snorkel/#findComment-940116 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think Ford will cover them. If you have engine issues because of sh*t getting through the filter (unlikely) but they will tell you straight up its your fault (no warranty) for changing the filter. As with your experience though, most dealers wouldnt pay the filter any attention and you would have to be unlucky to get screwed over because of it. But the point is Ford will not cover you.

bunna Donating Members 813 Member For: 18y 8m 27d Posted 07/10/09 09:51 AM Share Posted 07/10/09 09:51 AM (edited) Ford didn't do millions of kilometers of testing with a K&N filter, and they don't fit them in plant, so why should they cover them?
