The Benefits of Cabin and Engine Filter Service
Whether you’re driving a brand new Lincoln model or an SUV, pickup truck or sedan from another manufacturer, know that your vehicle has two filters. The engine air filter, located under the hood, works to filter out dust, debris and particles that can negatively impact how your engine performs. When debris and dust builds up, this can cause problems with the power, as well as the fuel efficiency.
Your cabin air filter also plays an important role. Located under the dashboard, above the glove box or under the hood, the cabin air filter is designed to attract dust, pollen, mold spores, dirt and debris that can pose environmental and health risks within the cabin. The more you drive, the more dust and pollen gather in the cabin of your luxury vehicle, especially when you use the air conditioning or HVAC system.
When it’s time for cabin air filter replacement service, you may notice a decrease in air quality or air flow which affects the air you breathe while driving or riding as a passenger. Even in vehicles with dual or tri-zone automatic climate control, a decrease in clean air can occur if the cabin air filter replacement service is not performed according to your maintenance schedule.
Luckily, the certified technicians at our Lincoln service center in DuBois, PA, are here to help. We meet with you personally to discuss any service issues and inspect the engine fuel filter and air cabin filter at every service visit.
Timing Engine Air Filter Replacements Right
During routine maintenance, you can count on our highly-skilled technicians to let you know if your engine filter or cabin air filter is dirty and needs to be replaced. However, on average, it’s essential to schedule an engine air filter replacement and cabin air filter replacement service at least every 10,000 miles.
There are factors that could affect this timeline, though. For example, if you drive in harsh regions with more pollutants or allergens, your cabin air filter may need to be replaced sooner than the recommended timeline according to your manufacturer and owner’s manual. If you smoke in your vehicle, this also begs the need for cabin air filter replacement service sooner to minimize odors.
Your driving habits can also impact the timeline for an engine air filter replacement as well as the type of roads you drive on, including off-roading and dusty roadways.
Signs You Need New Engine and Cabin Air Filters
Typically, as a loyal Lincoln customer, you won’t need to worry about inspecting your filters when you have the dedicated service team at Spitzer Lincoln DuBois available to help. However, we do encourage you to share any signs that you notice that may indicate the need for engine air filter replacements or cabin air filter replacement service.
A quick glance at each unit may help us to indicate that it’s time for a replacement, but when your engine filter needs to be changed, you’ll likely notice a decrease in fuel efficiency and/or acceleration. Some drivers may notice a slow engine startup, an odd noise stemming from the engine or dark smoke from the exhaust.
While driving, if you notice an odd odor, an increase in noise from the air vents or air filter box or a decrease in air flow when operating the heat or air conditioning, we recommend that you schedule cabin air filter replacement service.
