Just fitted a K&N into the TD5, and I can now hear sucking noise inside the cab, is this normal after fitting a K&N?
Cheers

Yes................ish.
Which K&N did you fit, the replacement for the standard filter or 57i kit?
The 57i kit will make the sucking noise but I didn't hear anything when I replaced the standard filter with a K&N, although I do have a Safari Snorkle fitted as well. :-k
Are you sure it's not SWIMBO?? :(biglaugh):

Standard Replacement (I think) . I have re-checked that I fitted it correctly i.e put the filter box back together properly, it only noticable at slower speeds, I guess I'll have to stick the stereo up another notch :)

Carful she can hear you :)

It's not an 57i then as they replace the whole filter box with a cone filter, like the ones you can fit to the carb'ed V8s.
I guess it's just one of those things. :wink:

Pretty normal, my 300Tdi Defender does the same with an ITG replacement filter...
What you need is to have your Td5 chipped :wink: ... won't stop the noise... but you'll be going faster.

Sounds like a plan :)

its a nice sound isnt it, when i put my foot down in the V8, the sucking drowns out the sound of the exhauste. 8)
