• CLEAN ONCE EVERY 5 YEARS: Engine air filter only needs cleaning every 75,000 miles under normal highway driving conditions (5 years based on the average miles driven per year of 15,000 miles)
• One Year Limited Warranty

The K&N Engineering RU-5061 Universal Round Tapered Air Filter is designed for a wide range of automotive, racing, powersports, equipment, and custom intake applications. Its tapered profile and angled flange help accommodate air intakes with varying inlet configurations, making it a practical choice for applications where a standard straight filter may not fit. The filter is designed around a 4.375-inch flange inlet, a 10-degree flange angle, and a tapered outlet profile for flexible installation planning.

Built with a strong, pliable molded rubber flange, this K&N universal air filter helps absorb vibration while providing a secure connection to the intake tube. The flange can stretch slightly to accommodate minor variations between sizes, supporting a reliable fit when the intake diameter is close but not exact. The reusable filter media can be cleaned and reused, helping reduce replacement waste and simplifying long-term maintenance. For normal highway driving, K&N recommends cleaning the engine air filter approximately every 75,000 miles, or about once every five years based on average annual driving.

The RU-5061 is suitable for custom applications and is listed with fitment for select 2013 Volkswagen Beetle and 2013–2015 Volkswagen CC configurations; verify the vehicle intake system and application requirements before installation. This product is not CARB approved, and a California emissions acknowledgement may be required. Associated accessories include K&N RX-4990 series air filter wraps and the K&N 99-5000 Filter Care Service Kit Aerosol. The filter is backed by a one-year limited warranty.
