Benefits of Replacing My Engine Air Filter
There are many parts in the mechanical system that keep your car going strong. One element that plays a crucial role in your car's performance is called the engine air filter. The engine air filter helps trap dust, dirt, and other airborne particles that would otherwise enter the engine. By catching these contaminants, the engine air filter allows sufficient amounts of air to reach the engine. If the air filter gets clogged, the engine must work harder to keep the car going. In turn, this reduces the engine's overall performance, which can cause reduced fuel efficiency. Furthermore, an overworking engine can wear out and need to be replaced sooner than it should, which means you end up spending more money.
How Often Should I Replace My Engine Air Filter?
Like other vehicle components, the engine air filter must be replaced periodically for your vehicle's optimal health. There are several ways to determine when it's time to replace the air filter. You can check the engine air filter for signs of a problem, such as black areas where the air filters through. If the air filter looks visibly dirty, it's time for a replacement. You can also replace the air filter by following the recommended service schedule found in the owner's manual. Each automaker outlines the ideal time to replace the engine air filter, which usually ranges from 30,000 miles to 45,000 miles. Sometimes, a more frequent change may be necessary if you drive in extreme temperatures or subject your car to dusty conditions.
