Im after a Knn induction kit for my 03 1.5 s and there are two types of filters for it. 1 at £75 and 1 at £85, the £85 has a temp sensor and the other does'nt. What difference does it make if i buy 1 with a temp sensor or not?
Which filer?

im not even sure but to be honest it sounds over priced you can get a Apexi airfilter for 40 quid and results show some where that its the best filter for day to day use
Take a look under your bonnet - if you have a wire and connector going into the pipe NOT on the engine side of the airbox that's your air temperature sensor and you need the K&N for models 'with air temp sensor in airbox' if you don't your air temp sensor is built into the MAF (the housing with wires going into it on the engine side of the airbox) and need the other filter.
The 'with air temp sensor in airbox' filter has a hole at the front to plug in the air-temp sensor, the other one doesn't.

To be honest, I wouldn't recommend the K&N 57i kit for the N16. I bought one & discovered my 1.8 runs better with the K&N panel filter. They're also about £35 cheaper.

brapp brapp!
Right this is annoying me now, i can't find anywhere what filter i need for the K&n. There is 1 without a temp sensor and 1 with and how am i meant to know what 1 i need because it says nowhere on the internet or the manual.
