Engine Air Filter Replacement

Engine Air Filter Maintenance and Replacement

Even if your vehicle isn’t showing signs of the problems listed above, our service experts recommend you have the filter inspected approximately every 15,000 to 45,000 miles, or once a year. The mileage schedule can differ between different makes and models, so check your owner’s manual for your particular vehicle. If you frequently drive on dirt roads, in heavy traffic, or similar conditions which involve large amounts of dust or smog, you’ll likely need to have your engine air filter replaced more often. A convenient reminder is to simply have it checked each time you have your oil changed. It likely won’t need to be replaced each time, but routine maintenance can be the key to maintaining your engines peak performance.
