What Does an Engine Air Filter Do?

Dirt, dust, sand, and other contaminants are often kicked up in the air when you drive around Huntington Beach. The engine air filter acts as a barrier that prevents all of these contaminants from entering the engine. Over time, the engine air filter can become clogged. When the filter is clogged, it’s less effective at keeping the engine free of contaminants, which can lead to the following performance issues during your Laguna Beach travels:

  • Sluggish acceleration
  • Misfiring spark plugs
  • Black smoke from the exhaust
  • Check Engine warning light comes on

If you’re experiencing any of these problems, it may be time to get an engine air filter replacement. Our team will quickly replace your engine air filter and get you back on the Newport Beach streets.

How Often to Change the Engine Air Filter

Mercedes-Benz recommends getting an engine air filter replacement every 10,000 miles in extreme conditions. Extreme conditions could be anything from frequently driving on dusty, unpaved roads to spending a lot of time in traffic on hot days. Under normal driving conditions, the average driver can replace their engine air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles.
