I have never had a problem with K&N filters.
I DID have a transmission problem......transmission ceased to shift with Amsoil/snake oil.
Dumped the Amsoil/snake oil, and replaced.....then all became OK for many more thousands of miles!
Amsoil/snake oil....never again!
Did you use the recommended Amsoil transmission flush first to get out all the sludge and varnish that was already in there?
Amsoil or any high end quality transmission fluid will loosen the sludge and varnish up and get it circulating through he system clogging passage ways. Had you flushed it first or simply refilled with Amsoil again, I would bet you would have gotten the same many more thousands of miles and even more and probably used a little less fuel too.
I had a co-worked tell me a similar story, said he used Amsoil once and he spun a bearing in a V8 and attributed it to the Amsoil. I said if it was the Amsoil, then why didn't the other 7 spin?
Odds are that one bearing wasn't sized or set correctly.
