G5 Performance Pleated Air Filter - 3.2 V6 (Golf R32)

Upgrade your engine’s airflow with this Ramair performance panel air filter, designed as a direct replacement for the OEM air filter fitted to selected Volkswagen Group V6 petrol models, including the Golf R32 Mk5 and Passat B6 V6 models.

Manufactured using high-flow synthetic nanofibre filtration media, this performance filter improves airflow compared with restrictive factory paper filters while maintaining excellent filtration performance. The pleated filter design increases the available surface area, allowing more air to reach the engine while ensuring contaminants are effectively captured.

Unlike disposable paper filters, this Ramair panel filter is fully reusable and washable, making it a long-term upgrade for improved airflow and reduced maintenance costs.

With over 35 years of motorsport filtration experience, Ramair’s pleated nanofibre filter range offers a premium filtration solution for both road and performance applications.

What This Filter Does

Factory paper air filters are designed for basic filtration and low manufacturing cost, which can restrict airflow, especially as they become dirty.

This Ramair performance filter improves airflow by using:

• High-flow synthetic nanofibre filtration media

• Pleated filter construction to maximise filtration surface area

• Precision injection-moulded frame for an exact fit inside the factory airbox

This allows the engine to breathe more efficiently while maintaining excellent filtration performance.
