An air filter traps dust and debris before they reach the engine, so the air the engine breathes is clean. A blocked one can make the engine feel flat. Have your registration ready and call 07961 404768 — we will check which filter fits your car.
What an air filter does
The engine draws in a large amount of air for every litre of fuel it burns, and that air carries dust, grit and insects with it. The air filter sits in the intake and traps those particles before they reach the engine, where they would wear the moving parts.
A filter that is blocked restricts the air the engine can draw in. The engine can feel flat, use more fuel, or run roughly — and a filter that is torn lets dirt straight through. Air filters are a service item, changed at the interval in the car's handbook or sooner if the car is driven on dusty roads.
How to find the right air filter
Air filters are matched to the car and the air box, and to the size and shape of the element. Two filters can look alike and still differ in size or shape, so a visual match is not enough. Have the registration to hand for your air filter when you call. Or tell us the make, model, year and engine. The number on the old air filter helps too, if you can read it.
If your engine feels flat or is using more fuel than usual, the air filter is one of the parts to look at — but so is the fuel filter and the ignition system. Ring us, describe what is happening, and we will point you at the air filter.
Related filter parts
An air filter is one of four filters on the car. The oil filter guards the oil, the cabin filter guards the air you breathe, and the fuel filter protects the fuel as it travels to the engine — each one guards its own flow.
