I buy the recharge kit and work on the K&N and everything was great... last week the car start with the same sh!t

start to rev slowly again and i proceed to turn off the engine and start again and sometimes the problem disappearsand sometimes the problem still... If i disconnect the battery the problem go and the car runs with no issues but the next day start with the same problem... well i proceed to install the oem drop in filters and the car runs great from Thursday to yesterday... Yesterday start with the same fcking problem and the car have the oem filter.... yesterday i leave the car on the dealer and im waiting for they call to see what they are going to tell me now.... cause the car dont have the K&N filters now... sorry for this testament but im very mad bro!!

Thats weird I have my K&N filters for 2 years now but no issues with it. Considering your car is 2013 model should not have such problems yet.
Update us what causes your Z to do that. Definitely not the K&N, I was thinking your MAF sensor must not be working well.

Do you have to oil those filters? Maybe give the MAFs a good cleaning? Hope it's something simple!

Yeah i was thinking those K&N should take 50k miles before you oil and clean them.

Suck that you're having problems with your Z. Good call putting the factory filters back in, I'm interested to hear what the dealership has to say now.

Good luck Carlitos! Keep us posted!

Zoren 370 · 08-05-2014, 08:07 AM

As always the dealershit would always blame your mods. Rather than actually check the real problem.

im still waiting for the dealer call to see what is the new story behind this problem.... maybe they are going to tell me now that the problem is the HPS Post Maf Tubes

but trust me if i remove the post maf tubes and the problem comes again im going to buy $5.00 on gas and a box of matches and im going to start a fire on the dealer with my car there

I still think a good MAF cleaning then ecu reset will help. Don't start thinking like the way I do about my beater DD! I just sunk the last $400 into it, no more. If something else starts to go out, the bastard is getting dual stage 300 hit of naaawwwwwwzzzzz till something explodes
