I got my CCP done about two weeks ago and got it back last week. Last night I was reinstalling my BMS S1 and decided to do the carbon filter delete. After prying the intake apart I realized the entire top portion of the filter cover came out with the filter attached. It was almost melted together - it felt like a solid single piece until I was able to pry them apart.

The paper is the normal yellow, but the edge that is closest to the middle is very brown as if burnt. I touch it and it crumbles.... yeah. That's totally getting sucked into my turbos.

Anyways, do the air filters generally not get replaced in an oil service? I had the oil service performed (it was part of the CCP).

In every car I've ever had the air filters were on the same interval as oil.

Interesting....I was going to do this simple mod after I had my CCP done a few weeks ago. I see Rock Auto sells Mahle-Knecht LX16845 & LX16855 for $16 each. Sounds like I should order a set prior to taking things apart or maybe spring for the BadBlack modified K&N's.

I got my CCP done today. They only change the oil not the air filters.

Replaced the filters tonight. Touched the old ones over a trash can with gloves on and they disintegrated .......
