I only suggest that as my previous car had one and it never ever had issues with the AFM, and the filter was in there for about 5yrs...

From reading many posts on here, some people hate them, and some dont mind. From what I can gather, as long as you dont over oil them after you clean them, you should be alright. My gc8 has had one on since before I bought it, and thats over 30k's at least, and I havent had a problem. I do give my AFM a bit of a clean with some electrical contact cleaner though every service just in case.
