Unfortunately this has evolved over the internet as an 'old wives tale'.. and a lot of stories of "my buddy" or "i know a guy who had MAF problems".

K&N has been riddled by this, and has done tremendous testing and have a full department devoted to oil and the effects on the MAF to fight these accusations.

A good read from their site outlining this: K&N Response to Mass Air Flow Sensor Concerns

"Not one of these suspected MAF sensors sent in for laboratory evaluation was shown to have failed due to contamination from K&N filter oil. "
