Hello Forum! Just joined up on the Forum having purchased a Panda Cross 1.3 Multijet. So a little advice please: I want to change the air filter. I ordered a Crosland (paper) filter which has arrived today. The thing is, it doesn't have the foam strip backing (on the inner edge) along the paper fins, but was specified as the correct filter for my car's model year (2010) by euro car parts (the supplier); the filter currently in the car has a foam strip.
Having looked on eBay and other sites, some filters seem to have a foam strip backing and others not. Has anyone any thoughts? Presumably the foam strip adds an extra level of air filtration, so is a filter without the foam O.K?
Any advice much appreciated. Thanks in anticipation. A great Forum!!
