Green Filter Sport Air Filter | Renault Clio 3 RS 2.0

The risks of a restrictive factory paper filter: what your Clio 3 RS loses during acceleration

The naturally aspirated 2.0 16V engine (F4R) in your Renault Clio 3 RS demands a massive, continuous supply of fresh air to express its full power above 5,000 rpm. The factory disposable paper filter, due to its dense and rapidly clogging texture, creates a constant restriction in the intake tract. Keeping a choked stock filter results in sluggish pedal response, restricted high-rpm performance, and higher fuel consumption.

Failing to replace a dirty disposable filter also exposes your engine to poor fine dust particle filtration during weekend drives or track days. By equipping your hot hatch with this Green Filter replacement air filter, you remove intake airflow restriction: you restore sharp throttle response, unleash the rewarding 2.0 16V induction intake sound, and eliminate the need to repeatedly buy disposable paper filters at every oil change.

Crafted from high-permeability oiled multi-layer cotton, this sport air filter guarantees up to 40% more airflow compared to the original paper filter while ensuring total engine protection.

Engineered to last the lifetime of your car, this washable cotton air filter for Clio 3 RS is easily cleaned and re-oiled using official Green Filter maintenance kits.
