In present days different types of filters are installed in each vehicle that moves along the roads and highways of towns and cities. Proper operation of your vehicle is not possible without filter components in the complex system of your car. The modern internal combustion engine simply does not work in the absence of fuel and clean air. By the way, in order to recycle a liter of gasoline about fifteen thousand liters of air are necessary. But, unfortunately, the quality of the air in today's environment is far from being perfect. Therefore, the air used for combustion, must be purified all the time using air filtration.

The air filter will protect the engine from mechanical particles, which are present in huge amounts in the road dust. If the filter is missing or damaged, the dust particles can get inside the engine and cause wear out and tear of the intake tract parts and the cylinder-piston group. This would inevitably lead to engine failure and consequently expensive repairs. That is why a good driver needs to constantly check on the status of the air filter and, if needed, replace it at the right time. In case you drive often on dusty roads, air filters should be replaced twice as often than recommended by the manufacturer. So, the air filter protects the engine from the negative impacts of a large number of contaminants contained in the air.

Buying a filter means, first and foremost, ensuring reliability and safety of performance and motion of the vehicle. Well-chosen air filter elements and their timely replacement is a key to a long and trouble-free operation of the car engine. You can acquire it in our online store at a very low price. And we will deliver it to any convenient address in a short time. You can also buy other filters such as oil, fuel or the car filters.

What is necessary to know about engine air filter replacement: lifetime limits, common defects and their signs, tips and recommendations

Lifetime of the engine air filter depends on its type and car operation conditions. On average, specialists recommend to replace standard filters during every oil change or every 10 000 – 15 000 operational kilometers. The high performance air filter has longer lifetime limit and is to be replaced after 35 000 – 50 000 operational kilometers.

The engine air filter loses its operability due to soiling, deformation and damaging of the filtering element or the housing. Component defect can be detected by troubled start and lowered engine power, failures in its operation, worsened car dynamics, and excessive fuel consumption.

Clogging or damage of the part can be diagnosed via visual inspection. Dark-gray colour of the filter, dirt, dust, damages of the filtering element and its housing deformation indicate that the component is to be replaced. Moreover, if the indicator for air filter control is included in the car, it will give a corresponding signal.

In order to replace the standard or sport air filter, you need to loosen the clamp of the hose fastening, unbend retainers or unscrew bolts of the filter cover and remove it. Then you need to remove the defective component from the housing and install a new panel or the round engine air filter, according to the fact, which type of the component is presupposed by exact car model. Close the cover, make sure that it adheres tightly to the elastic seal of the filter housing and fasten it. Specialists recommend to replace the secondary air filter and the compressor air filter simultaneously with the engine air filter.
