Have taken off the PiperX panel filter and replaced with the OE one because the dealers have Manny back on Nov 7th to do some cosmetic repairs ( ongoing story)..anyway, when I bought the filter it came with a small tin of spray..now being blonde

..what side of the filter do I spray..or is it both sides that need doing?..just so I know when it goes back on in a few weeks time

Thanx guys x

You spray it to the dirty side, where the dirt particles collect which is underneath where the air comes in! it shud be the spongy side if its the filter im thinking of!
Dont spray too much or it cant be too good for the engine! Id spray it now so that it has time to dry off a bit!
