When I first took it to local p-car mechanic, he advised not to use the K&N - just keep it stock.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

31,000 miles, bought from sister who owned it a long time. K&N drop in today and new Alpine Double din this week. 18" wheels seem rare in the 2001...C3

POST 2Original post

Congrats, looks like your sis kept it in good shape. 18" wheels are not really rare but look much better than the 17's. I would skip the K&N IMO.

POST 3Original post

Very sweet, congrat's. Now go drive it like you stole it.

POST 4Original post

Looks clean, all you need is MK1 Aero kit! Congrats!

POST 6Original post

That paint looks great. Congrats and welcome to the club! How about a few more pics? Clear side markers are a cheap and easy mod, especially since you've already had a pumpkinectomy.

POST 7Original post

Quotes source post: 11188265

Nice car ... You might want to do a forum search on K&N before spending the $$. Seems like there's more downside than upside.

POST 8Original post

Great looking car. Lexol leather cleaner & conditioner are very good products.

POST 9Original post

I think the factory air filter works the best IMHO....

POST 10Original post

Yeah, one of the first things I did on mine was remove the K&N air filter that the prior owner added. I've got my lightly used one in a box in my basement. You can have it for shipping cost.

POST 11Original post

have had my '04 C2 Cab for a year now. When I first took it to local p-car mechanic, he advised not to use the K&N - just keep it stock. Took his advice & used $$ towards Row suspension upgrade instead. at base/stock level these are great driving machines. not much to do to increase performance/hp w/o some $$. my $.02 - drive it, as is, for awhile and then figure out how you want to enhance your driving experience.
