Tis The Season To Change Your Air Filter! | Swarthmore, PA

Spring allergens are in the air and you may be feeling a bit congested, but just imagine how your car feels! Your car can’t blow its nose, so you have to remember how important clearing out your vehicle’s ventilation system is and get it serviced when needed! If it’s been over three years or 30,000 miles, then it’s probably time for a new air filter; especially with the pollin-heavy months ahead! Take a look below at our reasons for routinely changing your air filter and bring your vehicle into Loughead Nissan for a service appointment today! 

Why You Should Routinely Change Your Air Filter:

Increases Your Fuel Efficiency 

• Studies indicate that replacing a dirty air filter increases fuel mileage on older, carbureted cars by as much as 14 percent. In addition, changing a clogged air filter can potentially increase acceleration, increase gas mileage, and help you save on fuel. 

Prolongs Your Engine Life

• Changing your air filter regularly helps prolong the life of your engine because the air filter is designed to trap dirt and debris that can damage internal engine parts such as the cylinders and pistons. Engine damage can occur from particles as small as a grain of salt and result in costly repairs.
