Here is a detailed introduction to the main consequences of not replacing the truck air filter for a long time: 1. Reduced vehicle acceleration and increased fuel consumption. If the truck air filter is not replaced for a long time, it can clog the intake tract, affecting the engine's air intake, leading to reduced acceleration and increased fuel consumption. 2. Clogged cabin air filter. The cabin air filter can also become clogged if not replaced for a long time, especially in summer when the air conditioning vents may blow little cold air. Generally, it is recommended to replace the cabin air filter once a year and the engine air filter every 20,000 kilometers. 3. Causes internal engine wear and cylinder surface scratches. The air filter prevents dust and road debris from entering the engine. These hard particles can cause internal engine wear, leading to cylinder surface scratches, adhere to tightly fitted parts, and cause surface wear on exposed and lubricated components.
