Tech Support - 25 EB Air Filter?

[Chops]

I just replaced my air filter & have a slight gap where the filter is visible where it meets the lid…passenger side just below the MAF sensor.
Pink colored FoMoCo filter…

Would someone check their 25/26 EB to see if this normal/correct?

Appreciate any feedback!

Ps…is the writing on your MAF sensor upside down like mine?

Mine looks identical, maybe it is a quick way for quality control to check that a filter was installed?

Thank you for confirming - appreciate it!

I could not see but felt the filter “exposed” on the other side too. You’re right I think - meant to be able to check if the air box is “loaded” without opening.

Here is what my 1800mi / 11mo filter looked like…not too dirty but still going to replace every year. I live in a “dusty chaps” town

K&N now has a filter to replace the factory one. I just put it in about three weeks ago. Works great.

Thats pretty nasty for such few miles! Did you check your cabin filter?

Did not check my cabin air filter oops - it is probably very dusty!
On my “to-do” list for later - thanks for the reminder

AC on constantly from purchase in June through mid November. Have yet to use my heater. Will test my heater after cleaning my cabin air filter!

It is obvious you don't live in Minnesota!
