    Air filter - how often do you get it cleaned?

    Hi guys,

    I have an M3 with this part on it: Dinan High Flow Carbon Fiber Intake for BMW M3 E90 E92 E93 - Dinan, Leader in BMW Performance Parts and Upgrades

    I'm wondering how often you clean the air filter? Since we live in quite dusty conditions I'm thinking of doing it every 10,000kms. Would this be too little?

    There's no certain formula for it but yeah 10,000kms should be reasonable.

    I cleaned mine and drove 200 kms in a sand storm in one of our previous events and cleaned it right after the drive lol and I almost found a Camel inside my intake!
