Hi I'm Rick Bilger, owner of Advanced Auto Pros. Have you ever wanted to know more about
your auto repairs, but didn't know who to ask or even what questions to ask them? We
believe everyone can be helped to understand their cars and are committed to educating
our clients. We're dedicated to making sure your vehicle is trouble free and fun to drive
as long as possible and we know this will save our clients thousands of dollars. This
brief video provides you with information designed to help you make the right decision
about your auto repairs. The air filter is an important part of the
vehicle's intake system. It allows the engine to "breathe" without the threat of contamination.
An engine needs a precise mixture of fuel and air in order to run efficiently. Air enters
the system through the air filter which catches the dirt and other foreign particles, preventing
them from entering the system and possibly damaging your engine.
Changing your car's filters on a regular basis can have a significant impact on engine life
and performance. Check your owner's manual for the manufacturer's recommended intervals,
but depending upon where and how you drive a good rule of thumb is every 12 months or
12,000 miles.
As air filters get clogged with dirt, grime, and debris, the volume of intake air is restricted,
decreasing performance and engine power. If ignored long enough, a contaminated air filter
can cause your engine to work harder, negatively impacting both efficiency and economy.
There is little safety risk, just decreased power and performance.
But, neglecting your air filter can have a big impact on the environment.
So if this makes sense for you and your vehicle why not call right now or go to our website
and make an appointment today!
