Hi guys,
have a short question. I retrofitted a K&N OEM replacement filter on my Audi A3 1.6 liter and I like the engine sound it provides. I wondered how a K&N would sound on my dad's 525d (pre-LCI). Would the diesel enginge snort so nicely as well while revving it? Has anyone experience with that?
It's about this filter.

Thanks in advance!

I have the same 530d as you, and was looking at getting this done. Have you noticed a dramatic increase?
How much did you pay?
