Engine Air Filter in Brookfield, IL

When a good technician changes your oil, they will also inspect your air filter. You shouldn’t need a new filter at every oil change, but you will need to change it regularly. Heed your technician’s auto advice if they tell you to change your filter. It’s not expensive, and it makes a big difference to your vehicle.

An air filter does what its name implies: it filters stuff out of the air. Air is drawn into your engine through the filter because your engine needs air to burn fuel. If the filter weren’t there, a lot of dust and debris would come into the engine compartment with the air. That dust and debris would get hot, burn, and produce all kinds of ash and gumminess that would eventually clog up your engine.

It’s also one of the least expensive and simplest elements of routine preventive maintenance. No one should have an excuse to drive around with a dirty air filter.

Stop in today for a quick air filter change and keep your car breathing well.
