I agree, I've run K&N reusable oiled filters on all my previous cars and none of them ever had any problems. My 03' Civic Si had an Injen CAI with K&N oiled cone filter on it for 147k miles and no problems ever arose from it or the car itself. Similar instance on my 00' GTI VR6. Electrical gremlins were abound in that car but the engine itself was rock solid up until I got rid of it at 97k miles.
