Recently, I found a very interesting thing, with the continuous improvement of second-hand car trading volume, the owners of the hands-on ability is more and more strong, it seems that everyone's understanding of the car has been upgraded to an equal order, for some basic automobile knowledge is also a treasure, so more and more owners choose to do their own "pick up the car". Especially some simple maintenance projects, such as air change, air conditioning filter element, simple inspection of car parts and so on.
But there are still many owners wrong maintenance parts replacement cycle, more than spend a lot of money. So today, for the "air filter replacement cycle" to explain to you.
The role of air filter element
The function of the air filter element is very simple, simply speaking is to filter the particulate impurities in the air device. Because the engine needs a large amount of air inhalation when working, the air filter filter will filter out the "inhalable particles" in the air, and then enter the (inlet or) cylinder and gasoline mixed combustion, if the air filter can not play the due filtering effect, the larger particles in the air will enter the engine combustion, over time will cause a variety of failures, One of the typical failures is the pull cylinder!
When will the air conditioning filter element be replaced?
On the question of when to replace the air conditioning filter element, different brands may get different answers, some people suggest replacing once 10,000 kilometers, some people suggest replacing once 20,000 kilometers!! In fact, the replacement of the air filter needs to see the actual situation, such as in some areas of large sand, dust, the master suggested that the owner should check the air filter every time maintenance, and shorten the replacement cycle, when necessary. And in some cities with relatively clean air, the replacement cycle can be extended appropriately.
