K&N Drop-In filter for the KIA Picanto

When we usually bring our beloved cars to the service center, one of the things that gets replaced regularly is the air filter and is considered a supply that needs to be regularly maintained and replaced with a clean one during the life of the car. However, this costs money and the service centers usually place a premium price tag on such parts. One of the easiest upgrades that you can do to your Picanto is replace the air filter with a permanent drop-in replacement that can be cleaned anytime and could last a lifetime.

I've tried the K&N replacement filter for the Picanto and I've noticed improvements in fuel consumption not to mention a noticeable acceleration improvement. The cost of the K&N filter actually pays of when you bring back your car to the service center.

The exact part number of the K&N Drop-in filter for the Kia Picanto that I used is 33-2930 and you can find more details at the K&N website.
