Has any one attempted to put there k&n air filter through the washing machine I ev got one that's filthy! It's not on my pride and joy so I'm not too worried and my washing machine is for dirty work stuff any way. I might give it ago maybe 60' cotton wash plenty of washing powder (non bio) , before and after photos watch this space !😝

if you have an outside tap,just use an old toothbrush or similar and scrub it with hot soapy water then rinse off and leave to dry
wouldnt put anything like that in my washer.

Dish washer would be more suitable surely? It will be tumbled to death in a washer. As an aside a 20v Rocket cover comes up a treat in a dishwasher, needs 2-3 cylces though

and afterwards, so does the dishwasher...

All together now sing... "Washing machines... live longer with K&N"

A friend of mine regularly put paintbrushes in the dishwasher. To my amazement, they - and the rest of the washing up - came out sparkling.

Reason I want to put in wash is it press a button an wait no mess to clear up. Will try this tomo lol I ll post the photos

Do you have consent from the wife? (and how do you know how it works lol)

Shouldn't this thread be under "Regular Maintenance"

I had to learn to use the one at work luckly ! So i'll bugger that one up lol ,and I bung everything in it doormats , trainers even my valeting cloths and oil rags lol. They come out clean

Not much diffrence from appearance bit more worn out if anything! But it's clean and I noticed a diffrence for the better when I put it back on.

But was the washing machine's performance improved?

The amount of black stuff that came out of filter might have lubed up the pump a bit , I did chuck it in the tumble dryer but it didn't like it much sounded like a hammer rattling round in there

At least another 25bhp
