2014-2017 Hyundai Xcent, Grand, and i10 Air Filter Lasts 50,000 Miles

The K&N 33-3049 air filter is for 2014-17 Hyundai Xcent, Grand, and Grand i10 automobiles.

The K&N 33-3049 air filter is designed for 2014-17 Hyundai Xcent, Grand, and Grand i10 models

Founded in 1967, Hyundai Motor Company of South Korea purchased more than one-third of fellow Korean automaker Kia in 2005 and became Hyundai Motor Group, the fourth largest vehicle manufacturer in the world. The company owns the world’s largest integrated automobile manufacturing facility in Ulsan, South Korea, which is capable of producing 1.6 million units a year. It sells its cars in 193 countries including the United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Dominican Republic, Brazil, China, India, Japan, Philippines, Turkey, Germany, Czech Republic, Russia, South Africa, Egypt, Libya, Australia, and New Zealand.

Three of the company’s major models include the Xcent, the Grand, and the i10.

Introduced in 2014, the Xcent is a front engine, front-wheel drive 4-door sedan defined as a city car. Two engines are available to power the car –- a 1.25-liter Kappa II 4-cylinder gasoline engine and a 1.1-liter U-Line 3-cylinder diesel engine.

The Hyundai Grand i10 was introduced in 2013. A 5-door hatchback, the car has a choice of four engines –- 1.0-liter Kappa II 3-cylinder, 1.0-liter Kappa II 3-cylinder LPG, 1.25-liter Kappa II 4-cylinder, and a 1.1-liter U-Line 3-cylinder diesel. There is also a choice of a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.

K&N is now offering the 33-3049 washable and reusable replacement air filter for the 2014-2017 Hyundai Xcent, i10, and Grand i10.

The filter is designed to boost horsepower and acceleration and features a multilayered cotton gauze media that is treated with a special grade of oil that makes the cotton strands very sticky. The filter is designed to provide high airflow with little restriction.

Conventional paper air filters must be thick and/or the fibers must be tightly compressed and dense so that they can meet minimum filtration requirements. This means that the paper filters are more restrictive from the start. Moreover, as the paper filters capture more and more contaminants, they clog up restricting air pressure as the atmospheric air pressure outside the filter remains the same. The air pressure differential between the interior and exterior of the filter causes particles to get pulled through the paper medium forcing them through the filter and into the engine.

The K&N 33-3049 air filter is so thin it drops into the existing factory air box.

The K&N 33-3049 air filter is ultra-thin and designed to fit in the existing factory air box

A typical foam air filter features limited surface area, which impedes airflow and dirt holding ability. As a result, dirt builds up on the outside and blocks the filter openings causing higher vacuum pressures, which distort the cells and draws dirt deeper into the filter. Airflow is reduced as cells clog adversely affecting the performance of the filter.

The K&N air filter will last up to 50,000 miles before servicing is required (depending on driving conditions). And since the K&N filters are washable they can be used over and over again while conventional paper filters will have to be replaced and discarded after just 15,000 miles. If you drive your car 150,000 miles, you will have to dispose of 10 air filters.

That is not the case with K&N washable and reusable air filters. Moreover, K&N offers an air filter cleaning kit that is specially formulated to cleanse and rejuvenate the air filter so that it can be reused for the life of your car.

K&N is so sure of the quality of its air filters it backs them with a 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty. The warranty promises that the air filter will last up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles without the need for replacement.

Since the air filter is designed to fit into the existing factory air box, installation is quick and easy and can be achieved with common hand tools.

The K&N 33-3049 replacement air filter is designed for the following vehicles:

K&N Off-Roader Cody Rahders Takes A Top 10 At The Baja 500 In His Polaris RZR

New components and strengthening have been added since last year's race

Cody and his father have been developing their Polaris RZR into an off-road contender

Cody Rahders, who started racing long before he could legally drive on the streets, was an extremely successful competitor in short-course off road racing. Primarily contesting the Lucas Oil Off-Road Series in classes that included Superlites, Pro Lites, and the UTV classes, it was in a Polaris RZR in the Production 1000 class where he made his mark with two consecutive championships.

Cody, along with dad Doug, made the decision to break out and take on off-road racing. They’d continue their relationship with Polaris and race the RZR, but in doing so stepped into one of the most highly-subscribed and competitive classes in off-road racing.

For example: for the recent Baja 500, 26 side-by-sides were entered in the Pro UTV Forced Induction class, that’s more than 10 percent of all entries. And remarkably, the top finishing Pro UTV FI came in with a lower time than the winners in Class 1/2, Class 5, Class 7, Class 7SX, Class 11, and Class 12. And would have kicked the last place finisher in Trophy Trucks back one position. That’s competitive. Further, of the 26 only two UTVs didn’t finish, so you have to earn your wins and not simply drive around waiting for other competitors to crash out.

Cody, Doug, co-drivers James Hill and Kevin Sullivan, and team were in much better shape for this year’s Baja 500 that last’s. They rolled into Ensenada without the electrical problems that plagued them the previous year and were confident they could achieve a strong finish. Cody ran in fifth through most of the event, broke 40 miles from the finish, made the repair and drove in for a seventh-place finish.

We had a chance to grill Cody about the Baja 500 and whatever else is going on in his life. Here’s what he had to say:

Cody is entered in one of the most compeitive classes in desert racing

To say that Cody was exited about entering the Baja 500 was a but of an understatement

K&N: How was this year's 500 versus last year's?

Cody Rahders: The course is always rough but temps were cooler plus we were better organized and better prepared.

K&N: Did you feel better prepared? Was the team and the UTV better prepared?

CR: The car only went 160 miles at last year’s Baja 1000 before we folded an A-arm and DNF'd so it had relatively low miles on it which made prep easy and after 5 starts in Baja, my dad began to have an understanding of who and what we needed for spares and where they needed to be on course.

K&N: Last year "UTV Driver" wrote "that the desert's not been kind to you." You laughed when you read it, sort of agreeing. Are things better for you out there?

CR: Their "odds" chart is always funny but in my case it’s been accurate. The biggest thing that helped is slowing down, not a lot but just enough to help the car live and get it to the finish. We need to invest in some better parts in key areas that should allow me to pick up the pace.

K&N: The course ran more on the west side of the peninsula than last year, where it was run mainly on the east side. Did that have any impact on you or your UTV?

The end of a long day but the effort was worth it

Cody and his two co-drivers James Hill and Kevin Sullivan enjoy the spoils of their Top 10 finish

CR: Only difference for me is it didn't feel like we were racing in a blast furnace this year (115 degrees last year – Ed.). It’s Baja, it’s rough.

K&N: The winner set a blistering pace. His time would have placed him second to last in Trophy Trucks. You came in about two hours later. Did you have trouble in the desert? In the pits? Or had you decided on a pace you thought would bring you home to a good finish?

CR: We don't have the budget (yet) to run at the leaders pace, simple as that. My plan was top 5, to run conservative the first 400 and maintain a top 10 pace then push the last 100 miles and demonstrate we can finish strong. I ran as high as I think it was 3rd or 4th coming into our second pit at race mile 160 but broke an axle coming through a wash and had to have it changed. I lost a few spots there, gained some back and by race mile 240 was in 5th through 440 then had the threaded end of the right outer CV joint break off which ruined a wheel bearing. By the time we got the car out and fixed I lost an hour and a few spots. I got a couple positions back but everyone was so spread out it was just get to the end and finished 7th.

K&N: On top of your racing you’re also a full-time college student. How's school going?

Cody is studying engineering in college and working part-time at Fox Shox

Perhaps Cody's mind wasn't completely on his college course work as he prepared for the 500

CR: Good, I’m busy though and taking a physics class over the summer break so I can try to transfer to SDSU in the fall.

K&N: If that weren’t enough, you are working at Fox Shox, tuning UTV shocks. Are you still working at Fox?

CR: Yes. When I'm not in school I work in the engineering department at Fox. It’s awesome to be on the design side and can’t thank Fox enough for the opportunity.

K&N: Did you tune some shocks specifically to your liking?

CR: Yep, mine! Shocks are personal, it’s not a one size fits all. If someone doesn't know what they like we have base settings to get them started then take them testing to develop their skills and learn how the shock works in different conditions. Then we can tune it to their style of driving.

Congratulations on your finish at the Baja 500 and thank you for your time Cody. Good luck with the rest of the season.
