How long has it been since you changed your filter?

Automotive filters are an important component of automotive components, which can filter various impurities generated by the automotive engine during operation to ensure the normal operation of the engine. As a very important component in car maintenance, filters play a crucial role. When they fail, they can cause great damage to the car. Therefore, if you want to better protect your car, regular replacement is necessary.

In general, the filter should be replaced every 10000 kilometers or about half a year, and the specific replacement time should be determined based on the quality of the oil used and the driving habits of the vehicle owner. If the oil quality is good and the mileage reaches 10000 kilometers, it should be replaced once; If the owner’s driving habits are not good and the mileage reaches 5000 kilometers, it should be replaced once.

There are two forms of filter damage:
1) Due to the lack of regular inspection of the filter, or the fact that the filter was damaged during inspection but was not found, it caused significant trouble when discovered. For example, it is difficult to start the engine, or the engine stalls after driving a certain distance after the vehicle is started. Due to the lack of timely inspection, significant losses were caused;
2) The filter was damaged due to the use of inferior filters in the vehicle or the failure to follow the prescribed time when replacing the filter. This is particularly important as car owners need to pay attention.
