FAQ & Summary: Golf GTI Air Filter Replacement
Q. How many engine air filters are required on the Golf GTI?
A. Just one.
Q. Does BMC have a cabin (pollen) air filter available for this vehicle?
A. No. BMC specialises in performance engine air filters, and does not produce cabin filters.
Q. Do all Golf GTI models use the same air filter?
A. No. Dimensions vary across Golf GTI models and between engine types within the same model. The filter specifications for this FB756/20 are listed above on this page for the Golf 7 and Golf 8. Contact us with your vehicle details for the exact filter for your vehicle and engine.
Q. Will the air filter also increase horsepower (HP) and torque on the Golf GTI?
A. It is possible, but not guaranteed. Although a cotton performance filter guarantees a greater air flow and better engine performance, air filtration, and throttle response, air filters alone cannot guarantee an increase in HP to the car owing to factors such as the particular GTI model, mechanical condition, multiple tuning parameters, etc. For guaranteed and significant HP and torque gains on the Golf GTI, consider a cold air induction kit, such as the OTA, CDA, or DIA, or a RAM intake.
Q. Where is the Golf GTI air filter by BMC available in South Africa?
A. Contact us with your location and we will refer you to a BMC authorized, in-stock dealer near you.
