    was wondering is any of y’all already have a K&N oil filter already installed and if so is it worth the purchase?

    I put one in just to experiment in my '19. I can't say that I feel a difference or notice any difference in MPG's.

    There probably won't be a noticeable difference,but you will only have to buy the k& n filter once. Paper filters only last for a specific time.You will save money in the long run.I have a k&n cone filter on my 2000 tundra that I have used for 20 years and is still in good shape!

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I think he is talking about an oil filter. Not an air filter.

    Well heck fire, I misread. I have never personally ran a k&n oil filter. I have heard very mixed reviews of their oil filters. From what I know they use to be pretty quality filters. I believe now they are made over seas and a cheaper filter is what I remember seeing on Bob is the oil guy. Most people said pass on them, but everyone has an opinion.....

    My mistake! I thought you were talking about an air filter! I have never heard of anyone getting more power from an oil filter change. Just my opinion.

    I would say no, especially since you can get OEM oil filters for less than $5 a piece. I can't imagine Toyota using or making such a vital piece and it not work well. They also use it for several of their vehicles.

    Yeah I passed on it opened a box up and compared them and the Toyota filter has more pleats which is for better filtration etc so I just went with those and bought some at the local dealership since I bought my oil in bulk for the next few oil changes

    Good choice. I bought mine from Amazon in a pack of 10 for $46. So $4.60 a piece and I’ll have enough for awhile.
