How to Service Them
Your car’s air filter is an important part of the engine’s intake system. It helps to keep dirt, dust, and other debris out of the engine, which can help to improve performance and fuel economy.
The frequency with which you need to service your air filter depends on a number of factors, including the environment in which you drive, your driving habits, and the type of filter you have. However, most experts recommend that you change your air filter every 12,000 to 15,000 miles.
If you live in a dusty or dirty area, you may need to change your air filter more often. And if you drive a lot of short trips, your air filter may get dirty more quickly.
Here are the steps on how to service your air filter:
- Locate the air filter. It is usually located in the engine compartment, near the air intake.
- Remove the air filter housing. This is usually held in place by a few screws or clips.
- Remove the old air filter. Be careful not to damage the new filter.
- Inspect the old air filter. If it is dirty or clogged, it needs to be replaced.
- Install the new air filter. Make sure that it is properly seated in the housing.
- Reinstall the air filter housing.
That’s it! Servicing your air filter is a quick and easy way to improve your car’s performance and fuel economy.
