I know that if you by a K & N that it comes pre oiled. You can also get a cleaning and re-oiling kit to clean it. but K & N's are meant to go for 50,000 miles. i think the k&n is 57 or 61 bucks.

The stock filters are great filters, they're right one par with aftermarket ones.

Ya the stock air filters are a one time use just like cars. To know if a air filter is good or not clean it out with forced air and raise it up near a light and look at it. If you can see light through it..its good to go still.
