Air Filter Replacement
  • Air filters prevent dirt and other materials from
    getting into vehicles engines and should be
    changed or services annually to ensure
    trouble-free engine function. Forgetting to
    change or service the air filters on your car can
    cause airborne debris such as leaves and dust to
    find their way into the engine. This grime can
    then mix with the oil, which, when moved around
    the engine, can slowly wear away engine
    components due to its abrasive nature. If left
    for a while, a clogged and useless air filter can
    cause serious damage to your engine, reducing its
    performance and costing you more money than the
    cost of a filter.

Hoe often should you change the Air Filter in
your Car
  • The engine air filter should be replaced between
    15,000 and 30,000 miles, depending on driving
    conditions. If you drive on unpaved roads, it
    needs to be changed more often. If you don't
    drive a lot, an air filter should be replaced at
    least every 3 years, as with age it becomes
    brittle.
  • If You Dont Change the Air Filter
  • If your air filter gets too dirty or clogged,
    your engine won't be able to suck enough air into
    the combustion chambers. The engine will then run
    rich (i.e. too much gas and not enough air). When
    this happens, your car will lose power and run
    roughly. Your Check Engine light also may come
    on.

Causes of Bad Air Filter
  • A dirty air filter prevents the necessary volume
    of clean air from reaching the engine which
    affects the emission control systems of the car,
    reducing air flow and causing a too rich air-fuel
    mixture which can foul the spark plugs. Fouled
    spark plugs can create an engine miss fire, rough
    idle and even starting problems.
  • What will a dirty Air Filter do to your Car?
  • When the air filter is blocked with dust and
    grime, air flow decreases, and clean oxygen can't
    mix with the fuel. The fuel then becomes too
    rich, putting unnecessary stress on the engine.
    Gradually, you'll notice your car start to drive
    rough. Your check engine light may also turn on.
