a dirty cotton gauze filter will flow and filter like a clean paper one.
i fyou get a K&N or any other 'wet' cotton filter, try to clean it as little as possible -- youll 1, filter in dust if you keep cleaning it and 2, destroy the cotton real quick, the fibers just collapse from water.
give it a quick spray with the proper oil on the clean side every now and the, shake off any big chunks of mud and dirt, and thats all you really need to do.

It is not advisable and it is also illegal to use oil filled air filter types in NSW. They are not good for AFM and holden has released a statement that any HFV6 using a oil filled air filter will not have certain parts replaced under warranty as it fucks them.

wow never knew that.. guess its diff in SA, looks like youll have to get an apexi pod or something then 
|
horseshit
thats because holden are retarded!were do all crank case vents vent to?the intake. have a look inside any intake and there is always oil. my bet holden is bring out there own filters or that they are pulling at straws trying to fix yet another fault!

On a second note to a K&N / Holden story which i once stopped some pictures or , was the fitment of K&N filters being fitted into the commordores with the cold air intake running passed over the radiator { yeap that plastic above the radiator is going to be really cold}. There was as a shit fight with some people in the country area'a or NSW , there engines where worn out to buggery in thousands of ks . Holden blaimed the fitment of the aftermarket filter and from the pictures the throttle bodys where filled with dirt , people chased K&N for the replacement of the engines . And last i heard K&N where blaming the poor design of the air system stating that not filter would have survived the conditions not even the factory ones . I never got to find out what the outcome was . Urethane filters are far superior in those conditions , or a oil/air filter .
