Drivetrain R56 Alta Cold Air Intake Notice!!!
So what was the outcome? As I'm looking to buy one. Also looking for shipping costs to Toronto, Canada. I have filled out the form online but no response.
Thanks
Thanks
my intake hose failed in my 08 a while back. i bought the car with the alta intake already on it. the fitment is poor at best. now that its time to replace the air filter i am thinking of purchasing another intake instead of just replacing the filter.
the right angle hose they give you in the kit that connects the filter holder to the MAF looks like the issue. it pushes the intake hose towards the front of the car. i also had to bend the filter holder to make the hose connection fit so it does not pop off while i am driving.
if they had an updated hose i would possibly think about keeping the intake and replacing the filter. but i am not going to buy a filter for a poor fitting intake, i will just replace it with something that fits properly.
