Cabin Air Filter & Engine Air Filter Replacement Springfield, OR

Just like your home’s HVAC system, filters are required to keep your vehicle running properly and ensure the air inside is safe to breathe. At Springfield Express Lube, we recommend replacing your car or truck’s cabin air filter and engine air filter at regular intervals to make sure it remains running perfectly.

Our Springfield certified technicians don’t pressure customers into additional or unnecessary services they don’t need. Sit back, relax and stay in your car or truck while we work on ensuring your vehicle is running properly and keeping the air safe.

Cabin Air Filter Replacement

When driving, dust, smog and other pollutants build up inside your vehicle. When your cabin air filter is clogged and no longer functioning, the pollutants taint the air you breathe inside the vehicle.

A new cabin air filter will filter the air inside your car and ensure it is clean and safe for breathing. When your cabin air filter is not working properly, you are exposed to pollution levels 6 times greater inside the vehicle than the outside air.

Cabin air filters should be replaced every 12K-15K miles, though those who drive frequently in dusty and poor air quality environments might need to replace them more frequently.

Benefits of Replacing Your Cabin Air Filter:

Aside from the basic health benefits of cleaner air, a functioning cabin air filter:

• Reduces and/or prevents allergens, mold spores, pollen, dust, smog and other pollutants from entering the vehicle ventilation system.

• Provides relief for those who suffer from asthma, allergies and other respiratory conditions.

Engine Air Filter Replacement

An engine air filter is different from a cabin air filter. Rather than cleaning the air you breathe, it cleans the air entering your engine.

For every gallon of gas your vehicle uses your engine will take in thousands of gallons of air. That air then sucks in contaminants like dust, pollen, and insects which can harm your engine if not properly filtered.

A dirty or clogged air filter reduces the amount of air drawn into the engine reducing engine performance and fuel economy. Regular engine air filter replacement is good preventative maintenance. It may improve your gas mileage, too!

Replacement intervals for your air filter can vary depending on your driving conditions. We recommend you check your engine air filter at service and replace it about every 10K-15K miles.
