OEM Air Filters

When it comes to your vehicle's routine maintenance, don't forget about your air filters. Much like the oil filter or fuel filter, they need to be inspected on a regular basis to ensure that they're doing their job -- and replaced ASAP if they show signs of wear.

What Air Filters Do

Simply, they protect both your engine and passenger space from airborne contaminants. The engine air filter is found near your vehicle's air intake, where it's best situated to capture debris and pollutants. Without it, those troublemakers would gather in your engine, leading to carbon build up, impaired performance, and, potentially, thousands of dollars in engine repairs.

The cabin air filter, on the other hand, may be found in different spots depending on your make and model. Most are placed behind the glove box, but some vehicles put the cabin air filter under the front cowling on the passenger side of your ride. It's worth its weight in gold, and then some, during allergy season since it captures allergens before they can pass through your HVAC system and into the air that you and your passengers breathe.

How to Resolve Air Filter Issues

First, check your air filters. If they're clogged up, or have degraded with age, they need replacing. Other signs of trouble include a misfiring engine, worsening fuel efficiency, a musty smelling cabin, or an inability to maintain a consistent cabin temperature. You should plan on replacing your air filters every year, at a minimum, even if you're not experiencing any of these symptoms. That ensures that both your engine and respiratory system are getting the fresh, clean air that they need.

Sure, you can turn to many sources in your search for a new air filter. However, getting the wrong one can be just as bad as not replacing one when it's outlived its usefulness. That's because installing an air filter that wasn't designed for your model leads to a poor fit -- which, in turn, lets those nasty pollutants get in and cause trouble.

However, buying an air filter made by your manufacturer solves things -- and nicely. You see, your OEM designs their air filters for your SUV, truck, van, or car.
