It is time to pull the old 94 940 out of the barn for Winter driving (Minnesota - naturally aspirated 4 cylinder fuel injected).
I see Parts Geek has many air filters for this car:

Any recommendations on a good air filter? I have used Mann oil filters for many years with no problems and assume their air filters would be good. Parts Geek has many air filters for this car. The car will be driven in normal suburban conditions.
Thanks

    I don't remember if the genuine Volvo filter that my 940 came with was marked with a mfg. I can say that the genuine Volvo filter for our newer Volvo is made by Mann.

    There may be better stuff out there, but I like to stick with OEM (or equivalent) for hard parts, and Liqui Moly for most fluids.

    I have always had good results with a Wix filter

      I've always considered WIX filters very everyday, but after doing a bit of research I was surprised at the results. In testing, WIX comes out as a top filter. I've always stayed with Mann, which wasn't part of the test, and presume it would at least be above average, likely comparable to the WIX. WIX (WIX-Filtron) is owned by Mann (Mann+Hummel), but made at different plants.
