The question has been asked before but the OP got no answer.

The wiki shows the 2.5l type - is this the same for a 3R?

Thanks

Hoyin,

These are the replacements I just fitted to my 3R, Cheapest I could find and they were exactly the same as the originals.

However reading more about the filters it says you don't need to replace them until you have done 50k miles and can't actually see the pink filter behind the mesh.

Mine then appear to be quite clean...

Your Nobles use the K&N type filters, right? If your filters aren't torn or badly crushed, you can get the cleaning/reoiling kit and just wash them.

I replaced mine last week with slightly larger K&N's around £35 each and are direct replacement.... planning to get some larger ones tho that are not offset to see if I can get em to fit
