Air Filters
These days, most vehicles use two air filters. They work much like your fuel filter and oil filter do in that they prevent airborne contaminants from getting into vital systems and parts.
Where to Find Your Air Filters
The first type of air filter is the engine air filter, which sits near the air intake. That allows it to capture those pollutants before they can collect in your motor and cause trouble. The other one is the cabin air filter. This is most commonly found behind the glove compartment, though it may be found underneath the front cowling on the passenger side of your vehicle instead. You can confirm its location by checking your owner's manual. This air filter collects allergens and irritants before they can make their way through the air ducts, out the air vents and into your passenger space.
How to Recognize Air Filter Problems
Sadly, your air filters will eventually go bad due to clogging or age degradation. When that happens, air can’t flow freely through them. Signs of this include:
- Misfiring engine
- Impaired engine performance
- Strange engine noises
- Musty smelling cabin
- A whistling sound coming from the air vents
- Fluctuating cabin air temperature fluctuates
- Increased emissions
- Worsening fuel economy
