How often should I clean this air filter?

That depends on your driving conditions. aFe says the tall, evenly spaced pleats provide excellent dust holding capacity, which extends the service interval. Inspect the filter regularly, and clean it when you see a buildup of dirt and debris.

What is the best way to clean this filter?

aFe recommends using their filter cleaning solution, or a similar mild, non-oiled filter cleaner. Apply the cleaner, let it soak, then rinse the filter from the clean side out. Allow the filter to fully dry before reinstalling.

Does this filter require oiling?

No, this aFe MagnumFLOW air filter is designed to run dry. Oiling is not necessary and can actually reduce the filter's performance by clogging the media.
