Hello Paul

To reset you ECU - disconnect the battery negative for a few minutes.

Thanks

Put a K&N element in the existing air filter housing, they are about £35 but can be cleanded, they add a few bhp too,

It depends on the enviorement, but the instructions say:

a.. High Air Flow with Excellent Filtration a.. Designed to Increase Horsepower and Acceleration a.. Washable and Reusable a.. Will NOT Void Vehicle Warranty a.. Lasts up to 50,000 miles before cleaning is required depending on driving conditions a.. 10 Year / Million Mile Limited Warranty

they still work even when they look dirty, the one for your car is the E-9172
