Engine & Cabin Air Filters
Engine and cabin air filter inspection and replacement for cleaner air in your engine and inside your vehicle.
Your vehicle has two air filters. The engine air filter keeps dust and debris out of the engine. The cabin air filter cleans the air that comes through your vents.
Both clog gradually. We can check them during an oil change or other service and show you their condition.
Signs your filters need replacing
- Weak airflow from the vents
- Musty or dusty odors in the cabin
- Windows that fog easily
- Your maintenance schedule calls for it
- You drive often on dusty roads or in heavy traffic
What’s included
- Engine air filter inspection and replacement
- Cabin air filter inspection and replacement
- Air intake inspection
What will it cost?
Pricing depends on your vehicle and what we find. We’ll inspect, explain the options and give you an estimate before any work begins. No work is done without your approval.
What happens during your visit
Inspect
We remove and inspect each filter.
Show
We can show you the old filter so you can see its condition.
Replace
With your approval, we install the correct replacement filters.
How often should air filters be changed?
Check your owner’s manual. Dusty conditions or heavy traffic can mean more frequent replacement. We can inspect them at every oil change.
What does the cabin air filter do?
It filters dust, pollen and debris from the air entering the passenger compartment through the heating and A/C system.
Can a dirty cabin filter affect my A/C or defroster?
Yes. A clogged cabin filter restricts airflow, which can make the A/C, heat and defroster less effective.
