Engine Air Filter Replacement Service

Benefits of Replacing My Engine Air Filter

There might be some components on your vehicle that you are more familiar with than others. One part that you may not know much about is the engine air filter. Engine air filters are produced from several materials, including paper, cotton, and fibers. Although their composition might vary, engine air filters play the same role in all vehicles, regardless of the drivetrain or type of engine. The air filter collects debris and small contaminants in the air before they reach the engine to protect the engine from harm and keeps it running as smoothly and efficiently as possible. The engine air filter plays a crucial role in your car's overall health, but it also needs to be changed periodically to keep doing its job.

How Often Should I Replace My Engine Air Filter?

Sometimes, it is easy to know when the engine air filter needs to be changed. The air filter naturally collects debris over time, but it should retain a normal color. If the air filter turns black or develops black spots, it's time to replace it. Debris that collects on the interior of the air filter also means that it should be replaced. You can also check the owner's manual for your car to get an idea for when the filter should be changed. Hyundai typically recommends an air filter change every 30,000 to 45,000 miles. However, your vehicle may need to have the air filter changed more often or less frequently. Your particular driving habits and location can affect how often the engine air filter needs to be replaced. Hot weather, dusty conditions, and taking your Hyundai on dirt roads can all translate to more frequent air filter changes.
