Intake air filter cleaning

It's recommended to clean air filter at least each 30K km.
I decided to clean the filter after 25K km. after performing preliminary checks at 15 and 20K km.
The clean process for the foam ITG filter, that located under the hood of VWR cold air intake is simply enough. Just followed the instructions of the filter manufacturer.
Its very important to exactly follow these instructions, if you want to keep you filter (and the engine) safe and working for a long time.

The foam filter need to be oiled with special foam air filter oil. I used this one from Castrol:
Foam Air Filter Oil
 After the cleaning and oiling, the filter was returned to its intake box.

By the way, if you want to see how to clean air foam filter by yourself, you're welcome to follow this link. Thanks to vwgolf.net.au forum member Lucas_R.

Odometer: 44,100 km.
