I found a E-1009 K&N at my local store. It fits pretty good, but not perfect. It does fit inside the stock airbox. I couldn't find a listing for the 09 when I looked. Hope this helps. Mike

I said it does not fit perfect. I also said I counldn't find a listing. That was just a suggestion. Good luck.

K&N has them but only for the 2.5 ltr which is strange. I would think the 2.5 ltr and 3.0 litre would be the same ...no ?

2.5 Ltr is part number 33-2187

The intake tube is 3". You might try to find one of those ricer type filters to fit. Mine has been working fine. It fits into the stock air box like it should and I just had to tighten the clamp down tight. Give it try, you might like it.LOL

any other dimensions as green filter seems like a wicked filter and they were asking measurment details? What brand is yours?

Diameter is 6". I didn't notice much of a performace increase but right after I put it in the fuel milage went up about 1.5 mpg but that might be driving style. I live in a very rural setting and its hard to judge "city" driving.
