According to the recommendations of industry experts and vehicle manufacturers, your cabin air filter should be changed every 15,000 miles. It is a good idea to take a look at your owner’s manual to see what interval is recommended by the manufacturer of your particular make and model. The service center at Suntrup Volkswagen would also be glad to provide recommendations based on driving conditions, your driving habits, and more. Learn more about cabin air filters below, and if your vehicle is in need of a new one, set up an appointment today.
A cabin air filter cleans the air that passes through the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. This prevents contaminants from making their way inside the cabin. After a while, the air filter will eventually become clogged with dust and debris, and that can have a negative effect on the air quality of your interior.
If you drive in a city with poor air quality or lots of construction, or if you live away from the city and drive in the desert or on dirt roads, or even if you like to take your vehicle off-roading, it might be necessary to replace your air more often than normal. If you are wondering whether your air filter needs to be replaced, there are a couple of warning signs to keep an eye out for:
The cost of changing a cabin air filter can vary based on the car you drive. That price can be anywhere between $30 and $70. If you go to an authorized service center and your vehicle is still under warranty, some costs may be covered. If you plan on performing this maintenance task yourself, you can save time by ordering an air filter online.
