2012 to 2017 Fiat Panda and Fiat 500 Air Filter from K&N Offers Increased Airflow

K&N 33-3046 replacement air filter for Fiat Panda and Fiat 500

The K&N 33-3046 replacement, washable, and reusable air filter fits into the factory air box and enhances airflow be utilizing a low restriction, oiled, cotton gauze media.

Italian-automobile manufacturer Fiat has been instrumental in promoting the popularity of the so-called city car with its Fiat 500 and Fiat Panda.

The Fiat 500 was introduced into the United States for the second time when the Fiat Group acquired a 20% stake in the U.S. car manufacturer Chrysler in 2009. Helped by its association with Chrysler, the 500 has received a better welcome in the U.S. market than the one it experienced in its first unveiling in the 1950s. The car suffered reliability problems causing many Fiat owners to refer to F-I-A-T as, “Fix it again, Tony.” In 1983 Fiat ended its first endeavor into the United States.

When Chrysler was on the verge of bankruptcy and possible death as one of the Big Three American automakers due to the recession of 2008-2009, Fiat stepped in, and worked out an agreement with Chrysler and the U.S. government that ultimately saved the company.

Packaging for the K&N 33-3046 replacement air filter for Fiat Panda and Fiat 500

K&N ships the filter pre-oiled, so all you have to do when you get it is install it and drive.

The Fiat 500 was the first car released by Chrysler-Fiat as a result.

In 2013 Fiat introduced the Fiat 500 turbo. It was the fifth variants of the 500 that included the Pop, Sport, Lounge, Turbo and Abarth.

The 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine that powers the 500 turbo generates 135-horsepower and 150 lbs-ft of torque from 2,500 to 4,000 rpms. In comparison, the turbo-less 500 has a 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 34 fewer hp and 52 fewer lbs-ft of torque.

The turbo and Abarth share a heavy-duty 5-speed manual transmission and it has a fuel economy rating of 28 mpg in the city, 34 mpg on the highway and 31 combined mpg. In comparison, the base 500 with manual transmission achieves a combined mpg of 34.

A 101-horsepower 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine powers the 2015 version of the 500. Fiat offers a choice of two transmissions –- a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic.

The exterior exhibits 15-inch steel wheels. However, 15-inch or 16-inch aluminum wheels are also available. It also includes power-adjustable heated side mirrors, rear spoiler, and chrome exhaust tip. Fog lights and power sunroof are also available.

Inside the car features clothe upholstery. However, leather is available. Other characteristics include a 50/50 split, folding backseat, leather-wrapped steering wheel, remote keyless entry, and Bluetooth connectivity. A navigation system is available as an option.

The Fiat Panda was introduced in 1980 as a no-frills utility vehicle. It came in two styles –- 3-door hatchback and 3-door cabriolet and buyers had a choice of eight engines. The gasoline engines included a 652 cc I2, 769 cc I4, 903 cc I4, 965 cc I4, and a 999 cc I4. There was one diesel engine, a 1,301 cc I4.

The Panda is currently in its third generation, which began in 2011. Six different engines are available to power the vehicle including four turbocharged.

Five models are available –- Panda Natural Power, Panda EasyPower, Panda Trekking, Panda 4x4, and Panda Cross.  There are two special edition models including the Panda 4x4 Steyr, which celebrates Fiat’s partnerships with Steyr-Daimler-Puch; and the Panda 4x4 Antarctica, which celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Panda 4x4.

To protect the various engines that run both the Fiat 500 and Fiat Panda, K&N is offering the 33-3046, washable and reusable replacement air filter. The air filter can be cleaned at intervals of up to 50,000 miles depending on driving conditions, works with OEM vehicle electronics and will not void the vehicle warranty. K&N backs the filter with a Million Mile Limited Warranty® that ensures that it will last for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles.

It is able to last for so long because of the way it is constructed. The filter features multiple layers of cotton gauze media that has been treated with a special grade of filter oil that causes the strands of the cotton gauze to become extremely tacky. This permits the filter to capture and hold particles until it is cleaned with the K&N 99-5000 air filter cleaning kit.

The K&N 33-3046 replacement air filter is available for the following vehicles:
2017 FIAT PANDA III 0.9L L2 - Exc. Turbo
2017 FIAT 500 0.9L L2 - Exc. Turbo

1996-2005 VW Passat Air Filter Delivers Clean Engine Air

K&N 33-2125 air filter for Volkswagen Passat

The K&N 33-2125 filter features cotton gauze construction that, besides protecting the engine, brings a greater surface area and increased airflow to your engine.

Volkswagen owners may not all be enthusiasts, but the Volkswagen Passat could make an enthusiast out of you, even if yours is simply a family car with chores to do. The Passat got a good start in 1973 with a new front-mounted, water-cooled engine, front wheel drive derived from recently acquired Audi technology, and a unique fastback hatch design from Italian genius Giorgetto Giugiaro. Within its first year on the road, it was tagged as the most modern family vehicle of its time; the people's car with pizzazz, if you will, stepping in where the aging Beetle was stepping out.

Fast forward to 1996 and generation five of the Passat was introduced as an all-new vehicle on the VW-Audi B5 platform. Aerodynamic engineering on the sedan (saloon) brought its coefficient of drag down to 0.27 percent. It returned to the shared Audi transverse-mounted engine in five versions (including a 2.3-liter V5 Audi-derived gasoline power plant) plus turbocharged direct injection (TDI) for both the diesel and gasoline-powered models.

All wheel drive became an option in 1997 with the Torsen limited slip differential for the 1.8-liter, 2.8-liter v6, 1.9-liter TDI, and 2.5-liter V6 TDI, plus four transmissions (two manual and two automatic). Independent four-link front suspension and a semi-independent torsion beam for the 4WD cars and a shiftable manumatic 5-speed trans option brought the car further to the turn of the 21st century with distinction.

The Passat family grew to 13 engine versions by 2001, including the 4.0-liter W8, a new technology (the block was shaped like a "W") being tested in the top-of-range luxe Passat until 2004, when it formally debuted as the W12 in the Volkswagen Phaeton and Audi A8.

K&N 33-2125 air filter for Volkswagen Passat

An engine air filter service is a routine but vital part of ensuring the longevity 71 models of 1996-2005 Passats, yet it is easy, and instructions come in every box.

Still positioned between the Beetle and the Golf/Jetta, the Passat holds down an important people-mover market segment for VW worldwide. Wherever you drive yours, you will be maintaining it on a regular schedule to keep it reliable, which includes an air cleaner service. Replacing the engine air filter is a routine, but vital part of ensuring the longevity of every car. Even with such an array of different engines, these 1996-2005 Passats all share the same air filter, and replacing it is a straightforward task requiring no special tools.

What has been available for some time is a replacement filter that is also easily washable and reusable: the K&N 33-2125 engine air filter. It is a panel style, rectangular cotton gauze filter that brings a greater surface area and increased air flow to the engine. More air to the engine equates to more horsepower and torque for a crisper throttle response in whichever engine version your Passat has. Additionally, the 33-2125's design and engineering provides outstanding protection for the engine. When tested by K&N's in-house laboratory, it worked at 98.73 percent capacity, trapping dangerous particles that could harm the engine.

You may inspect and clean your 33-2125 as often as you wish, but it will last up to 50,000 miles between cleanings, depending on driving conditions. The process is simple and a set of printed instructions accompanies each filter. There are even videos available online to walk you through the simple filter service process.

To clean this filter most efficiently, use the K&N 99-5050 Filter Care Service Kit. Spray with Power Kleen spray; rinse in running water; let it thoroughly air dry, then re-oil it with the Air Cleaner Oil before refitting it to the air box. K&N engine air filters are even warranted for 10 years or 1 million miles, so you won't ever need to buy a new engine air filter for your Passat again.

Your loyalty to your Passat deserves an investment in engine protection from K&N. You can view all the air filters that K&N makes for the VW Passat at the Air Filters for the Volkswagen Passat page. You can view all the K&N performance products for any vehicle by using the Search by Vehicle tool and you can find a local K&N retailer by plugging your location into the K&N Dealer Search as well.

Todd Gilliland Wins the NASCAR K&N Pro Series Race at Iowa Speedway

Todd Gilliland wins the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway

Todd Gilliland won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway. It was his fourth win in the K&N Pro Series this season and the fifth of his career.

Todd Gilliland won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway, leading 114 laps of the Casey's General Store 150, and putting another notch in the belt of West Series teams.

The K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway pits the drivers and teams from the West and East Series. Gilliland, who races for Bill McAnally Racing in the K&N Pro Series West, won his fourth race of the season and the fifth of his career.

"For the 16 car to win here three times in a row I think that really shows that the West is just as good if not the same or better than the East Coast," Gilliland said. "Everyone's been working super hard out there. I think it's a big boost of confidence to everyone out there."

Todd Gilliland wins the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway

Todd Gilliland won the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway leading 114 laps of the Casey's General Store 150.

The K&N Pro Series East had six drivers in the top 10 at the race at Iowa Speedway. The K&N Pro Series West had four drivers in the top 10.

Gilliland started on the front row with pole winner Kyle Benjamin. Benjamin led the first 27 laps of the race before Gilliland past him on lap 28. The two drivers swapped the lead until lap 38, when Gilliland took over for 42 laps.

"It was kind of big tonight to be the leader on the restarts," Gilliland said. "Choose where you want to go and get the jump on them right away. Once you get out to the lead, you can kind of pace yourself out there. I'd say restarts were pretty big out there tonight."

His dad, David Gilliland, a driver in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, was Todd Gilliland's spotter in the K&N Pro Series race. David Gilliland told his son to be patient on the restarts. The strategy paid off as Todd Gilliland was able to put some distance between his car and the others in the field after every restart.

Kyle Benjamin (40) leads the field at the start of the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway. Benjamin won the pole and led the first 27 laps of the race.

"It's always a little bit easier to learn the track when you have a great car right off the trailer," Gilliland said. "I felt that's what kind of helped me. The car was really good. I'd say that's just everyone working together really well. That's what let me move around and find where the car worked best."

Benjamin crossed the finish line in second place and was the first K&N Pro Series East driver. He led 26 laps in the race, but lost the lead on lap 84 to Gilliland. Gilliland led the last 66 laps of the race.

"I knew he would be tough to beat," Benjamin said. "I was tight behind him. I couldn't really do anything with him. He got away from us a little bit."

Benjamin posted his sixth top-five finish of the season in the K&N Pro Series East. He is second in the K&N Pro Series East standings and trails Justin Haley by 32 points after 10 races.

Kyle Benjamin won the pole for the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway

Kyle Benjamin won the pole for the NASCAR K&N Pro Series race at Iowa Speedway. It was his fourth pole position of the season and his second in a row.

Gilliland leads the K&N Pro Series standings by three points over Ryan Partridge after eight races. Gilliland has won four K&N Pro Series races and has seven top-five finishes. He also won the K&N Pro Series East season opener at New Smyrna Speedway in Florida. Gilliland has been tough to beat in the K&N Pro Series East and West.

"Once I got behind him, he would just take off and leave us," Benjamin said. "He pinned us down pretty hard on the initial start. Might have been able to do something with him but he was pushing pretty hard getting off on the corner. I couldn't keep my car in line."

Austin Theriault was third overall and the second-place driver from the East Series. He has three top-five finishes in a row and has six top-five finishes in 10 races. He was the runner-up in the K&N Pro Series East race at Columbus Speedway in Ohio and was third at the K&N Pro Series East race at Virginia International Raceway.

The next K&N Pro Series East race is the Bunny Hill Vineyards 100 at Watkins Glen International in New York on Aug. 5. The next K&N Pro Series West race is the Toyota/NAPA Auto Parts 150 at Evergreen Speedway in Washington on Aug. 13.

Custom 1967 Chevy Camaro Top Level Pro Street Touring Build

1967 Camaro in the California High Desert

Doug’s 1967 Camaro when it was rescued from the California High Desert

Widened wheel tubs for 1967 Camaro

Beautifully hand-formed widened wheel tubs for 1967 Camaro.

It had been sitting in the high desert of California for who knows how long. The front clip and subframe had been long ago stripped off the car. Oddly it had the words "Doug’s Car" spray-painted on the driver’s door. But both the owner (not Doug) and the potential buyer who came to see it knew it wasn’t a candidate for the scrap pile. After all, it was a completely solid, rust-free 1967 Camaro tub. Rodger Lee of Ironworks Speed and Kustom in Bakersfield, California, towed it home, thinking that he’d do a quick rebuild and make a few bucks.

"Doug’s Car" sat in the shop for about 18 months when one of his best customers, Greg Heinrich of Fairyway Chevrolet, heard about the car. He challenged Rodger to turn "Doug’s Car" into a something amazing. And that’s how this once almost discarded shell went from bare metal, to a down-and-dirty street car project, and finally to one of the finest Pro Touring cars under construction.

Rodger named the car the Fairway 1967 Camaro, after Heinrich’s dealership, as he had with his previous project for this customer, the Fairway 55. He said he likes the idea of naming it after the customer’s Chevrolet dealership, rather than some bird of prey or made up name, as to him it evokes the likes of Yenko Chevrolet, a Pennsylvania car dealership that modified already hot Chevys in the ‘60s and added its name to the car.

Powering the Fairway is an LT4 crate motor identical to that installed in the 2015 Corvette Z06. This engine is normally installed in the most powerful production car Chevrolet has ever made-the LT4 supercharged 6.2L V8 small-block. The LT4 utilizes technologies first seen in the 2014 Corvette’s LT1 Gen-V small block, including direct injection and continuously variable valve timing, while leaping over the supercharger technology on the previous-generation Corvette ZR1’s LS9 engine. The engine is capable of producing at least 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, breathing through a K&N RC-4680 tapered air filter. Rodger believes this is the first installation of an LT4 in a Generation One Camaro.

Some of the undercar details of the yet unfinished Fairway Camaro are a SpeedTech front subframe and front and rear suspension, RideTech coilovers with Ron Sutton "Secret Sauce High Grip" valving, Wilwood disc brakes with calipers color-matched to the calipers of a Porsche 919, Forgeline 19×11" and 19×12.5" monoblock wheels, one-of-a kind aluminum rear spoiler, a custom front valance that’s been dropped 1.5" and a unique front spoiler.

Power is managed by a T56 Magnum Transmission, originally designed for the Dodge Viper. Headers are 100% in-house constructions while the rest of the exhaust is custom-built around Magnaflow components and spent gases exit the car through unique outlets fitted to the rear quarter panels. Inside the car is a special Dakota Digital dash and a four-point roll cage to keep everyone safe. On the exterior, Rodger gave the world a glimpse of the car in bare metal and pretty much wowed anyone who say the images. It’s now begun the transition to Corvette Arctic White, which will come in stages over the next few months.

Look for the final version of The Fairway 1967 Camaro aka "Doug’s Car" to break cover sometime in January.
