Nope, still got the fuzzy stuff clogging up the intake... Seeming that I'm the only one with this problem, perhaps it's either animal remnants of a baby duckling (very improbable) or some kind of packing material... Going to have the dealer check it out.

Here's a picture of the clogged filter. I'm wondering if it's coming from that box to the left the filter based on how the left is the only side with the material. Anyone know what that box is there for?

That's the new K&N FluffMaster 3000 air filter. It claims to trap 3000 more microns of dirt than regular filters and boost horsepower up to 60HP.
I guess you're test marketing that for them, aren't you?

The ribs on that filter look bent as well. Whats up with that?
