Routine maintenance is critical to the performance of your vehicle’s engine. One of the simplest tasks to maintain is replacing the engine air filter. If you live around Kenner, Metairie, or Slidell, you can get engine air filter service at Premier Honda.

The Purpose of an Air Filter

The engine air filter has the job of filtering dirt from the air and preventing it from getting to the engine. If the dirt and grime aren’t trapped by the filter, they can cause damage to the engine’s components. The air filter can come in various shapes and is usually located close to the engine. In older models, it was located at the top for easy access. Some modern vehicles have filters in other locations which are more difficult to reach.

The air filter must be inspected regularly to see if it has gotten dirty. Once it’s been taken out of the container that holds it in place, you can look through it. If you can’t see enough daylight, it means the filter is too dirty to be effective. You can bring your vehicle to Premier Honda for our service technicians to inspect and replace your filter.

Why the Engine Air Filter Must Be Replaced

When the filter accumulates too much dirt, it won’t allow enough air through to keep the engine cool. The engine will end up working harder and can overheat, which will reduce the lifespan. You may also notice reduced efficiency and poor performance, such as being sluggish to accelerate.

The engine might misfire or make other noises when the filter isn’t working correctly. When you replace the filter, you should notice the performance improve and the noise stops. If you don’t replace a dirty filter, you could end up with other expenses in the future.
