Air Filters

Particles like mold and mildew, pollen, micro-organisms, and dirt have the potential to damage engine parts. Your vehicle's air filters help keep the air that moves in to the engine clean of these particles.

Why is replacing my air filter so important?

Dirt and clutter may damage engine parts, slow-moving efficiency, and even cause poor air circulation in the cabin. An unclean air filter may cause poor fuel economy and vehicle performance, and in some cases can lead to engine issues. Needless to say, this seemingly small repair can have a large impact on your vehicle's overall performance.

When should my car's air filter be replaced?

If you notice any of the following, your filter may need to be replaced:

• Lack of engine power
• Poor fuel economy
• Emissions problems
• Odd, wet, or moldy smell when the vent is on

It is recommended that your cabin air filter is replaced at least yearly, or more often depending on your driving habits. Vehicles driven in harsh roadway conditions, dirty roads, road construction, or icy roadways treated with road salt will require air filter replacements more frequently.
