More than just warmer weather.

The arrival of spring brings more than warmer weather. As the seasons change so do your vehicle needs. Spring brings pollen and dirt as well which can enter the engine and other crucial components if not blocked by an air filter. The filter works to keep other major parts working at their best, mainly the engine. It also purifies the air in your car’s cabin and keeps it clean. We list out a few reasons why we’d recommend scheduling a service visit for your vehicle.

Cleaner air is a good thing.

By replacing your air filter when it’s dirty it results in cleaner air. Driving around with a clogged or dirty air filter isn’t good, period. The function of the air filter is to remove toxins and impurities from the outside air. When it’s clogged it isn’t able to perform this function properly. Another reason to get the air filter inspected in the spring is that summer is months away. If you don’t get the air filter checked, you’ll encounter the same issue of unclean air in the summer when you go to turn on the A/C.

Spend less money on gas.

A clean air filter can help remove dust from two places: cabin and engine. This is particularly important for the engine. When the air is dirty in the engine, it has to work harder. If an air filter is blocked it the air isn’t as clean. When your car has to work harder it results in using more fuel. Little by little it adds up over time. Cleaner air in the engine equals less fuel.

Air Filter Inspection

Spring cleaning is as important for your car as it is for your home. The air filter plays an important role in your car’s health by providing cleaner air and putting less stress on the engine.
