Absolutely no car manufacturer uses K&N as their OEM.
Why are yoy asking?

I doubt anyone is.
The closest I've seen lately is the Ford Performance Tune for my truck. It comes from Ford (Although the programming is supposed to be done by Livernois) and carries a 3/36 warranty. It comes with a K&N panel filter.
Closest I've ever seen to an OEM suppliled one.

explain, please.
K&N makes gauze filters for Harley Davidson, Drag Specialties, Arlen Ness, S&S, Vance and Hines etc and puts the aforementioned companys name on them. S&S are orange gauze, Drag Specialties are blue gauze etc.
A K&N panel filter came with my Toyota (TRD) supplied supercharger kit for my Tundra.

Not a fan of K&N filters but "BMW Performance" intake systems include them.

K&N filters have been used by Tickford Performance for Ford vehicles and Walkinshaw Performance for Holden / General Motors vehicles.
These still retain the engine and drive-train 3 year or 100,000 km warranty when fitted.

I’ve seen them or look a likes on some mustang and Camaro performance packages but don’t remember seeing red media they may have been dry style.

The shaker challengers have Dryflow air filters, the Porsche 918 has BMC oiled cotton gauze filters.
I've got some big bois here but they're not for a car...

Some of the dry-flow filters are grey.

Doesn’t the the Pro come with a TRD oiled filter from the factory?
That TRD filter is a K&N made product
The TRD filters are K&N/oiled but not sure they come that way? I thought that was a dealer/manufacturer's add-on product for those wanting mo powa!

The specs list the Pro with an oiled TRD air filter…..
The three I looked at had them as well
Clearly Toyota must change the warranty on these as the engines won't last but a few years with these filters and MAFs will probalby end up oily and not functioning. Unfortunate.
I know if I put the stickers on my subaru I will get 20hp from the K&N .. but if I want a sleeper car how many HP does just the filter give me?Clearly Toyota must change the warranty on these as the engines won't last but a few years with these filters and MAFs will probalby end up oily and not functioning. Unfortunate.
PS the stock filter is bigger than the one that came on my jeep with 50% more HP.
