❓ Air Filter Service FAQs
How often should I replace my air filters?
Most cabin and engine filters should be replaced every 15,000–30,000 miles, but Arizona dust may require more frequent changes.
What’s the difference between the two filters?
The engine air filter keeps contaminants out of your engine. The cabin air filter keeps dust, allergens, and pollutants out of your breathing space.
Can dirty filters damage my car?
Yes — restricted airflow can strain your engine or HVAC system, reducing performance and increasing wear.
Can I replace them myself?
You can, but placement varies by vehicle. Our techs install them correctly in minutes, and you get peace of mind it’s done right.
