As per the thread title, I have some free time now and was about to change my engine airfilter and thought it was just a matter of a short trip to the local car parts shop, grab one from the shelf and off we go...
....well, not so simple, it seems.
They have about 5 different options for my car, but what is really puzzling me is that two of them have a note of "for cold climate" (or something along those lines, since I am not a native Finnish and my language skills sometimes let me down)
I had never heard about this difference/variation before - can anyone shed some light? Hopefully, not taking a guess, as I am
If I had to guess, I would assume that the "cold climate" version is made of a different material (maybe not paper or a higher grade of paper) and the porosity between both is different.
I am almost ready to pay more and just get it from the dealership parts section to make sure I get the right thing...
