Hi All,
Hoping someone can shed some light here,
I have a 2005 (06 plate) Micra 1.5DCI sport (think its
the 82hp version).
Anyway ordered a K and N panel filter off ebay, went to
fit but it was too long and narrow?
I thought that the ebay seller must have sent the wrong
one out however when checking the code on the box and
dimensions of the filter against the official K and N
website it all matches?
Basically the K and N filter is a lot longer and narrower
than the stock version. The K and N is supposed to
measure approx 85mm x 273mm, however the stock one looks
twice that width and not as long - maybe 200mm at a
guess.
I am worried that someone has modified the existing
filter but everything sits nicely and its all boxed in
etc and it looks just, well, 'standard', really confused
here anyone have any ideas?

It sounds to me like K&N have got their dimensions wrong for the filter. To be honest you are not going to gain a lot by fitting a K&N panel filter, just get a good quality replacement. Something like a blueprint one will work just as well.
