Regular air filter changes are important because the air filter prevents dirt, dust, and debris from entering your engine. A clean air filter ensures proper airflow, which helps the engine run efficiently, improves fuel economy, and reduces emissions. Over time, a clogged air filter can strain the engine and decrease performance.

BEST PRACTICES

  • Check Regularly: Inspect your air filter every 12,000 to 15,000 miles—or more often if you drive in dusty conditions.
  • Follow Manufacturer Guidelines: Always use the recommended filter type and replacement schedule from your owner’s manual.
  • Pair it With Maintenance: Replace your air filter during routine oil changes or seasonal tune-ups to keep your car running smoothly year-round.
