All six Skoda Superb engines in 2001-2008 models can be fitted with and benefit from K&N 33-2125 replacement engine air filter.

Between the fall of communism and privatization of Czech Republic industries in the early 1990s and its 2015 global sales mark of more than 1 million cars, the current era Skoda Motor a bona-fide success story. Since 2000 a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagen Group, the Skoda range intended to be VW's entry-level cars, but they, and especially the Skoda Superb, have done far better than imagined.

The rectangular, panel-style K&N 33-2125 is constructed of a special cotton gauze that flows more air than the stock paper filter, and is washable and reusable.

An ad campaign launched in 2000 to polish the image of an increasingly attractive line of Skoda passenger vehicles,"It's a Skoda, honest!", worked especially well in the UK, and car shoppers responded. Later, the 2015 Driver Power survey of 46,000 owners, conducted by Auto Express magazine and the Telegraph website, identified their top 100 cars to own and there were three Skodas in the top 10: first, the Yeti; second, the Superb and sixth, the Octavia.

Built in Czech Republic, China, Russia, India, Slovakia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and distributed throughout Europe, Australia, India, UK, Russia and China, the first generation 2001-08 Superb, is produced on the long wheel base version of the B5 platform of the VW Passat. It is the top of the line Skoda, and besides being a favorite large family car, it is a preferred choice among limousine and taxi services, and rental fleets.

Utilizing three gasoline and three diesel engines, mounted longitudinally as inVW's Passat, paired with a five- or six-speed manual transmission or a five-speed automatic, the Superb has a wide range of power and gearing for people-moving and grand touring. Its 2006 facelift brought an interior redesign with luxury detailing and a refreshed exterior with new grille, head- and taillights, and mirrors. Recalling the Superb's original 1934 nameplate has a certain provenance in Skoda circles, when it was a luxury model owned by entrepreneurs and royalty adds to the appeal of today's iteration.

Noting that the Superb 2.5 TDI V6 was voted Britain's Towcar of the Year in 2002 and the Skodas in general are still the Czech Republic's leading resale used car, these vehicles are keepers.

If you own a first-generation Superb, you have no doubt been maintaining it on a defined schedule, with oil changes, lubes, and cabin air filter and engine air filter services. Available to Superb owners for some time has been the K&N 33-2125 replacement engine air filter, which is washable and reusable.

Even with its range of different engines, the 2001-2008 Superb shares this same air filter, designed and engineered by K&N especially for these powerplants, and replacing it is an easy job requiring no special tools.

The open-top, panel-style, rectangular cotton gauze filter presents a larger surface area at the intake, and provides increased air flow to the engine. Additionally, the 33-2125 provides excellent protection for the motor. When tested by K&N's in-house laboratory, it worked at 98.73 percent capacity.

The 33-2125 will last up to 50,000 miles between cleanings, depending on driving conditions, but you may inspect and clean it more often. The process is simple and a set of printed instructions accompany each filter. There are also K&N videos available online to walk you through a filter service.

The best way to clean the filter is with K&N's 99-5000 filter care service kit. Spray it with Power Kleen spray; rinse it in clear running water; let it air dry completely, then re-oil it with a few squeezes of the air cleaner oil before returning it to the air box. You can also simply specify the K&N 33-2125 filter and 99-5000 cleaning kit to your mechanic for the next maintenance date and be assured that you've given your Superb the option for a superbly long and healthy life.

Additionally, all K&N engine air filters are warranted for 10 years or 1 million miles, so you won't need to buy a new engine air filter for that vehicle again.

Your Superb deserves an investment in engine protection from K&N. To find a K&N replacement air filter for your specific model, use K&N's online search by vehicle tool. To find an authorized K&N dealer anywhere on the planet, use the K&N dealer search tool.

The K&N RK-3947XB Air Intake System features a washable and reusable air filter that is pre-oiled and ready to roll right out of the box.

Arguably the most popular motorcycle manufacturer in the world, Harley-Davidson® was created in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1903 and is one of two American motorcycle builders to survive the Great Depression.

Everything to install the system is included in the box. All you need is some basic hand tools and around 90 minutes of time and you'll be cruising down the road in style.

Known as the originator of the chopper style of motorcycles, it has traditionally offered heavyweight, air-cooled cruisers with an engine displacement greater than 700cc and also known for V-Twin Racing Street Custom (VRSC) and middleweight street platforms.

In 1901, prior to the launch of the business, 20-year-old William S. Harley drew up a plan for the company's first motor bicycle that included a small engine with a 7.07-cubic inch (116 cc) displacement and 4-inch (102 mm) flywheel with the idea of integrating it to a regular pedal-bicycle frame. Harley enlisted the help of childhood friend Arthur Davidson and Arthur's brother Walter and the three tinkered for the next two years resulting in the creation of a motor-bicycle.

While riding the contraption, the three discovered that it wasn't powerful enough to climb the hills around Milwaukee without some pedal assistance and they dropped it and immediately started developing an improved second-generation machine that featured a 24.74-cubic inch (405 cc) engine with 9.75 inches (25 cm) flywheels. The loop frame design of a larger engine took the machine out of the category of a motor bicycle and it became the forerunner of what we now know as a motorcycle.

In 1905 and 1906, they were producing single-cylinder models with a 26.84-cubic inch (440 cc) engine and in February 1907 a prototype model with a 45-degree V-Twin engine was showcased at the Chicago Automobile Show.

The 45-degree angle of the engine received several United States patents and allowed more torque in a relatively small space. The layout causes the cylinders to fire at uneven intervals producing a distinctive choppy sound that has been associated with the Harley-Davidson brand.

Through the years Harley-Davidson has produced a variety of engines to power its motorcycles including 13 Big V-twins, eight Small V-twins, the Revolution and single-cylinder engines.

Harley-Davidson has produced various models including the Touring (Road King, Road Glide, Street Glide, and Electra Glide), Softail, Dyna (Super Glide), Sportster, VRSC, VRXSE, and Street.

K&N offers the RK-3947XB air intake system designed for many H-D® motorcycles. The motorcycle air intake system is guaranteed to enhance the horsepower and torque of the engine. It does this by using an oversized air filter designed to provide more airflow to the engine.

The air intake system includes a sturdy aluminum backing plate that mounts directly to the throttle body through an aluminum integrated, internal-run breather system making installation a breeze. A durable mounting gasket is included to absorb vibration.

The intake system includes a K&N air filter that features multiple layers of cotton gauze media that has been treated with a special grade of filter oil that is so tacky, it captures and holds dirt particles.

Once installed, the RK-3947XB not only looks great, but performs better than the factory system. Providing more air for the engine, thus making more power.

The air filter is washable and reusable. K&N recommends cleaning it at least once a year, depending on driving conditions. K&N offers the air filter cleaning kit 99-5000 to clean and re-oil your filter again and again. K&N is so sure of the quality of the air filter it backs it with a K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty® that claims it will last for up to 10 years or 1,000,000 miles.

The K&N RK-3947XB air intake system fits the following Harley-Davidson models:

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.

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
2016 FIAT PANDA III 0.9L L2 - Exc. Turbo

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.

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.

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 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. 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.
