Filters

Car filters play a crucial role in maintaining vehicle performance and longevity by protecting key components from contamination. A vehicle typically has the following filters: engine air filter, cabin air filter (also known as the pollen filter), oil filter, and fuel filter. The engine air filter prevents dirt and debris from entering the engine and should be replaced every 12,000 to 15,000 miles. The pollen filter stops pollution and allergens from entering the cabin and should be changed every 15,000 to 25,000 miles; if you drive in a heavily polluted area, you might need to change it more often. The oil filter removes contaminants from the engine oil and should be changed with every oil change, usually every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. The fuel filter prevents impurities in the fuel from reaching the engine and should be replaced every 20,000 to 40,000 miles. The indications provided are averages, so to find out exactly when the filters in your car should be replaced, you should consult the car manual. Regularly changing your car filters improves fuel efficiency, protects the engine, and maintains optimal vehicle performance. Shop Car Filters Ireland
