    I think the air filter is the same as the consumables such as oil and filter, and how often it is changed depends on the quality of the material itself and the environment in which you use the car. For example, if the air in the area where you use the car every day is not bad, then the air filter replacement time can be longer, and the so-called longer time here is relative to the specified time. For example, the original factory recommends that you change it every 5000 kilometers, but in fact, there is no big problem for you to change it every kilometer.

    Under normal circumstances, a good quality air filter can be changed every 10,000 kilometers or even 15,000 kilometers. But it is recommended that every 5000 km you can take it out and blow the dust on it. That's basically what I do with my own air filter.

    Of course, it is also recommended that you strictly follow the requirements, these materials themselves are not expensive, and you can't save much money if you extend it.

    I am an auto maintenance practitioner, the replacement cycle of the air filter of our engine is generally determined by the mileage, but the road conditions we drive will also affect the quality of our air filter, because if we have a vehicle that often drives on the construction site, its road dust is very large, and in this case, our air filter is easily covered with dust, so in this case, the air filter needs to be replaced in advance, and it needs to be checked and replaced at 10,000 kilometers. If you usually drive in the city, there will be less dust and the life of the air filter will be longer! This kind of household scooter is about 15,000 kilometers to check and replace it better.

    In the past, I specialized in research, this is the general urban road 7500 to 8000 kilometers to replace once, relatively speaking, manufacturers are used to 10,000 kilometers, that is, we talk about daily maintenance when replacing the air filter. However, in areas with heavy sand and dust in the north, it is recommended to shorten the replacement cycle, and it is okay to replace it for 5,000 kilometers if necessary. It is recommended that you pay attention to the channel when replacing the air filter, try to replace it in some regular places, and at least have a maintenance factory that can issue invoices, so as to protect your legitimate rights and interests.

    Because although the air filter is not expensive, the role is still very important. The air filter has always been said to be the patron saint of the engine, so if you use a bad air filter, the car will cause the engine to take in less air and the fuel combustion will not be enough, which will really destroy the car.

    The function of the air filter element is to filter the solid impurities in the air, mainly dust, and there are many relatively fine quartz sand particles in the dust.

    How often to change it, this is not very standard, it should still depend on the road conditions, for example, the dusty road, the air filter is definitely easier to dirty, and the frequency of cleaning or replacement is higher.

    I take the air filter element of the motorcycle as an example, especially the scooter because the air filter inlet is relatively low, the air intake is relatively large, so the air filter is easy to be dirty, when the air filter is dirty, the vehicle will be underpowered, black smoke, and fuel consumption will increase.

    If it is said that it is still simple to clean or replace the air filter once every month, it is obviously inappropriate.

    Take the air cleaner as the standard if it is too dirty, once it is very dirty. It needs to be replaced in time to avoid unnecessary wear and tear on the engine.

    The air filter is the equivalent of a "mask" installed in front of the engine's throttle valve. It is mainly used to filter all kinds of very fine impurities in the air that enters the engine for combustion. Generally, manufacturers will suggest 5000, 6000, and even some manufacturers recommend 8000 or even 10000 kilometers for a replacement, but there is a reminder later, in the case of a dusty environment, it should be replaced in advance according to the environment.

    It depends on the local climate. As long as you have rich travel experience, you know that in Gansu, a place full of sand, you wear leather shoes for half a day, and it is absolutely no exaggeration to say that there is more soil on your leather shoes than in Guangzhou. The humidity in Beijing is also very different from the humidity in Chengdu.

    Do you still have to follow the maintenance manual at this time? I live in Lanzhou, the dust is relatively large, and the air filter in the car is 2,000 kilometers away, and it is full of dirt and ash. So I changed it for 6,000, although the manual said 20,000.

    However, because of the low humidity, the brake fluid will be changed much later than recommended in the maintenance manual. Only nerds listen to theories and don't care about anything.

    The filter element is the core component of the filter, which is made of special materials and is a wearing part, which requires special maintenance and maintenance. When the filter has been working for a long time, the filter element has intercepted certain impurities, which will lead to an increase in pressure and a decrease in flow, so it needs to be cleaned in time. When cleaning, be sure not to deform or damage the filter.

    Generally, it is replaced at about 10,000 km. It is recommended that if it is often used in road conditions and harsh environments, the replacement cycle should be appropriately shortened. 5000 kilometers is more suitable.

    We all know that the car needs to be maintained, the little partner who has a car feels the most obvious, 5000km or 6 months to do a maintenance, the length of time is also directly related to the car environment and driving habits, the general routine maintenance is to change the oil, filter, air conditioning filter, the whole car parts inspection, etc., these are all familiar, but the air filter knows that there are fewer friends.

    Air filter is the abbreviation of air filter.

    The engine has to suck in a large amount of air during the working process, and if the air is not filtered, the dust suspended in the air is sucked into the cylinder, which will accelerate the wear of the piston group and the cylinder. Larger particles enter between the piston and the cylinder, causing a severe "cylinder pulling" phenomenon, which is especially acute in a dry and sandy working environment. The air filter is installed in front of the carburetor or intake pipe to filter out dust and sand particles in the air and ensure that sufficient and clean air enters the cylinder.

    According to the principle of filtration, air filters can be divided into filtering, centrifugal, oil bath, and compound.

    During maintenance, the paper filter element must not be cleaned in oil, otherwise the paper filter element will fail, and it is easy to cause a speeding accident. During maintenance, only the vibration method, the soft brush removal method (to brush along the wrinkles) or the compressed air backflush method can be used to remove the dust and dirt attached to the surface of the paper filter element. For the coarse filter part, the dust should be removed in time from the dust collection parts, blades and cyclone pipes.

    Even if it can be carefully maintained every time, the paper filter element cannot fully restore its original performance, and its air intake resistance will increase, so when the paper filter element needs to be maintained for the fourth time, it is generally necessary to replace the new filter element. If the paper filter element is cracked, perforated, or the filter paper is deglued from the end cap, it should be replaced immediately.

    Generally, when the car travels about 8,000 kilometers, the air vapor filter should be removed for cleaning. When cleaning an air filter, use air from the air compressor to start from the inside of the filter. Blow the dust on the inner and outer surfaces of the filter element evenly up and down in the direction of the bevel.

    Note: Do not hit the filter element vigorously, and it is forbidden to wash the filter element with gasoline or water. Then the filter should be replaced every 24,000 kilometers driven by the car.

    Personally, I think it's important to take good care of the engine.

    It's time to change it in about 60 years, and some people can live to be over 60 years old like me, and the usual maintenance is to go fishing in the wild, and just one cigarette a day, too much is a big burden on the filter element.

    The basic replacement cycle of the air filter element is once a year or about 10,000 kilometers.

    It depends on the nearby air environment used by the vehicle. If it is a city with a better air environment, there is no problem in replacing it every year. If it is an industrial area and the pollution is serious, the filter element is more likely to get dirty.

    Then it is recommended to shorten the replacement cycle, which can be replaced in about 8 months. The replacement cycle of the air filter element is basically the same, and it has nothing to do with the model, only with the degree of environmental pollution.

    Generally speaking, the filter is replaced every 10,000 kilometers or 6 months, one at a time, and the maintenance interval stipulated by different models of automobile manufacturers is not exactly the same, and the specific replacement cycle is subject to the requirements of automobile manufacturers.

    The main function of the air filter is to filter the impurities in the air, to provide clean gas for the engine to do work, in this process, the impurities in the air are adsorbed on the surface of the air filter, after reaching a certain mileage, the filtration effect at this time is already very poor, must be replaced in time. In addition, when you find that the car is weak, the engine sound is dull, and the fuel is consumed, the air filter should be replaced in time, if the dirty air filter is used in the car, the engine will be insufficient, and the fuel combustion will be incomplete, resulting in unstable engine work, power decline, and fuel consumption increase. Therefore, it is essential for the car to keep the air filter clean. During maintenance, the air filter is usually replaced at the same time as the oil, filter, and fuel filter (except for the fuel filter built into the tank).

    How often do car air cleaners need to be replaced?

  19. Anonymous users2024-01-19

    The air cleaner needs to be replaced once when the car travels 15,000 kilometers or about a year.

    The specific replacement cycle depends on the use of the car and the vehicle environment. If the car is often driven in dusty or foggy conditions, the replacement cycle should be shortened and replaced every 10,000 km. Usually develop the habit of regular inspection and timely maintenance.

    An automotive air filter is a device that removes particulate impurities from the air of a car. Car air conditioning filters can effectively reduce pollutants entering the car through the HVAC system and prevent the inhalation of harmful pollutants. Automotive air filters are installed in front of carburetors or air intakes to filter air entering a car's engine.

    Car engines need to suck in a lot of air throughout their operation, and there are a lot of dust particles in the air. If the air filter is not filtered, it will cause damage to the piston rod pack and cylinder acceleration. If very large particles get between the piston rod and the cylinder, it will cause the engine to pull the cylinder.

    The car air filter also has the effect of filtering out dust and impurities in the air, ensuring that a certain amount of clean and dry gas is added to the cylinder. To sum up, the air filter needs to be replaced once when the car travels 15,000 kilometers or about 12 months.

    In order to keep the air filter working properly, it needs to be replaced regularly. Ideally, it is recommended that you replace it every 20,000 kilometers or 12 months, and if your car is used in a harsh environment, such as dusty and polluted air, you need to shorten the replacement time.

    The general service life of the air filter is 1-20,000 kilometers, which is greatly affected by the driving environment, and needs to be replaced in advance if the environment is poor. The air filter element has not been replaced for 10,000 kilometers mainly depends on the use of the air filter, and it is best not to change it for a long time, or to replace it within the specified time.

    If you do not change the air filter for a long time, you will not be able to effectively filter the particles in the air, so the engine will accelerate wear and carbon deposits, shorten the service life of the engine, and even the cylinder pulling phenomenon may occur, so replace the air filter element regularly to protect the engine. The replacement of the air filter element needs to depend on the actual situation, such as the wind and sand in some areas, and the dust is more, it is recommended that the owner check the air filter every time he maintains it, and shorten the replacement cycle, and if necessary, one guarantee and one replacement. In some cities with relatively clean air, the replacement interval can be appropriately extended.

    The air filter should be changed once after changing the oil twice, and the air conditioner filter is recommended to be changed once every two years, in fact, these two filters are very cheap! Add up to less than 100 yuan, if the air filter is not changed, there is more dust and garbage, which will have an impact on the operation of the engine, the engine is like a person, the necessary maintenance of the engine is necessary, the air conditioning filter is not changed, the bacteria breed through the pipe to the inner compartment of the car is harmful to the human body, so it is necessary to replace it regularly, the air conditioning pipe should also be cleaned regularly, and the bacteria are easy to breed!

    The air filter element is normally replaced according to the maintenance manual or use, generally replaced once every two years or 20,000 kilometers, if the driving road conditions are more dusty, replace them with inspections, generally check once every six months while cleaning up the foreign objects around the air filter, do not purge with high-pressure air.

    This depends on the actual situation, the usage of each user is different, and according to the actual situation, there is no very certain specification. Some filters that look dirty do not mean that they cannot be used normally, so it is still decided according to the actual effect.

    The air filter is what we often call the "air filter", and changing the air filter is a very basic item in maintenance. Replacement intervals are naturally different for different cars, so there is no absolute standard, as it depends on the amount of dust and impurities that the air filter absorbs. The same is an air filter, which can be used for 30,000 kilometers or even longer before being replaced once in a vehicle that has been driving on the highway for a long time; And for an off-road vehicle that always shuttles between the countryside and the countryside, it may have to be replaced in two months.

    Of course, both of these situations are more extreme, and it is more appropriate for the average city vehicle to replace the air filter every year or every 2 kilometers.
