The K&N KNA-2304 is a long-life engine air filter engineered to provide up to 18,000 miles of reliable filtration and fit a wide range of 2003–2021 Subaru H4 and H6 vehicles.

If you drive a Subaru Forester, Outback, Legacy, Impreza, WRX, Crosstrek, Levorg or similar model from the covered years, this K&N Advantage Plus replacement filter is a drop-in option designed to match or exceed original equipment specifications while offering extended service intervals. Using a premium synthetic or cellulose-blend media depending on application, the filter balances particle capture with airflow to protect the engine without sacrificing performance.

How does this air filter improve routine maintenance?

The K&N KNA-2304 is built for longer service life than many disposable filters, so you change it less often and simplify scheduled upkeep. It installs in minutes into the factory air box and is designed to meet OEM fit, form, and function.

• Rated for up to 18,000 miles between replacements under normal highway driving.
• Drop-in design that uses existing factory mounting points and seals.
• Durable construction reduces frequency of changes compared to 12,000-mile filters.

What protection and filtration performance can I expect?

• Premium filter media (synthetic or cellulose blend) for up to 99% particle protection in many applications.
• Engineered to meet or exceed OEM filtration standards and airflow characteristics.
• Robust construction resists deformation and maintains sealing under normal use.
