edition 30 airfilter
« on: September 25, 2009, 02:55:50 pm »
had the cover off and thought i would inspect the airfilter, it was very grubby so i thought i would treat it to a new one. tried gsf and they did the mk5 gti but not the ed30. rang vw and got one there £15 but the parts man did say its a different part number? anyone know the difference, can be alot if the aftermarkets fit i guess just wondered

I posted this a couple of weeks ago. The Ed30 or BYD engine filter is thinner and the part no ends in a B.

Thats interesting about the Ed30 being a different filter than the standard GTI as I've just put in a spare Green cotton filter that I had for my Leon TFSI (same engine as GTI) in my ED30. The p/n is P960137 and this is the same for the GTI, Ed30, FR, and Cupra.

It will do until I get the conversion piece for my Dbilas on the car!!!

I'm pretty sure the K&N part numbers are the same too....

can't remember the part no but i got one for my ed30 from a trade parts specialist as thats where the local dealer got them from. Looked exactly the same as the old filter to
me.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

From elsewhere.

The BWA filter ends in an A whereas the BYD ends in a B and is thinner. Not by much mind but the numeric part of the number is the same.  :wink:
