    That was my initial thought as well. But then again, Toyota design it like that for a reason. I just don't understand as to why Toyota don't advise to do any maintenance for it(?)...specially if it can cause any mechanical harm down the road etc.

    I feel like the SAIS in general is so useless that Toyota designed it as an afterthought, using the cheapest available parts and materials.

    Did you replaced yours for the UNI/K&N filter?

    Nice! Do you also use the oil spray after is cleaned? What brand you ended up buying, UNI or KN?

    Yes, I bought the UNI brand cleaner and oil spray kit way back when I installed the UNI filter and I'm still running on those same original 2 cans.

    I'm convinced the K&N branded cleaner and oil spray is the same stuff tho
