that will be me soon 
If the cone is more enclosed surely this won't be so much of a problem? The cone is pre-oiled from factory is it due to the intake sucking this oil in?

yes coats the MAF, and the VTA can mess up the car slowly as the car thinks theres an external leak in the system
theres a massive post about it somewhere from some expert, which il find if u really want me to

steves right , if you can take the kit off and get some brake cleaner from a motor factors and soak it through and clean it with it and at least ull save the air flow sensor, dumpvalve it tricky really, most cars engine managment systems arent good enough to realise that theres anything wrong but some are, but ull find out soon enough if the eml comes on

k and n's were originally designed to run on older cars that dont use mafs, and VTA valves are again ok on older engines like RST's
new technology doesnt mix with old

Been on nearly a year, doing well thus far. SEAT techs didn't seem to think it'll do any damage.
