How Often Should the Engine Oil Filter Be Replaced?
1 Answers
The engine oil filter should be replaced every 5,000 kilometers, the air filter every 15,000 kilometers, and the cabin air filter every 20,000 kilometers. Additional details about filters are as follows: 1. The engine oil filter removes harmful impurities from the oil, ensuring clean oil is supplied to moving parts such as the crankshaft, connecting rod, camshaft, turbocharger, and piston rings, providing lubrication, cooling, and cleaning functions, thereby extending the lifespan of these components. 2. The cabin air filter ensures that the air entering the car's air conditioning system is filtered. If not replaced regularly, impurities can lead to odors and mold entering the vehicle. 3. The air filter primarily prevents dust and particles from being sucked into the engine during the intake process. Excessive or insufficient air impurities can affect combustion efficiency, leading to issues such as engine carbon buildup.
