As a car owner, everyone knows the concept of three filters in vehicle maintenance. However, the other "second filter" that is equally important has been ignored by us. Today, we will share the common sense of five filters one by one.
01 Oil Filter
Function: Filter the impurities in the engine oil and provide clean engine oil for the parts of the engine that need to be lubricated.
With the continuous increase of mileage, the impurities in the oil increase, the impurities filtered and precipitated in the filter gradually increase, the passability of the filter element becomes worse, and the filtering effect of the oil filter decreases or even completely loses, which can easily lead to serious consequences: poor engine lubrication , Engine parts wear, engine power drops, engine abnormal noise, etc.
Replacement cycle: It is recommended that you replace it every 7,500 kilometers or half a year; appropriately shorten the maintenance interval under harsh conditions.
02 Gasoline Filter
Function: The main function is to filter out impurities in gasoline.
Some impurities in the oil that exceed the standard are easy to oxidize and produce gums, which can block the gasoline filter, which reduces or interrupts the fuel supply. In the slightest, it will cause a decrease in power and increase in fuel consumption, and at worst, the engine will not work.
Replacement cycle: It is recommended that you replace it every 30,000 kilometers or every two years, and pay attention to choosing a regular gas station to fill the correct label.
03 Air Filter
Function: Filter impurities in the air, prevent dust, foreign matter and other particles from entering the combustion chamber of the engine, and provide clean, dry and sufficient air for the engine.
After the vehicle is used for a long time, the dust and impurities on the intake side of the filter element will increase, which will affect the filtration performance of the air filter, which will cause the air flow through the air filter to decrease, which will lead to the decrease of engine power.
Replacement cycle: It is recommended that you clean the filter element every 7,500 kilometers or half a year, and replace it every 30,000 kilometers or two years. Please shorten the maintenance and replacement cycle for long-term use on bad roads (such as rural and mountainous areas).
04 Air Conditioner Air Filter
Function: It is a part of the vehicle air-conditioning system. During the driving process, it can effectively improve the air quality in the vehicle and filter foreign particles and impurities in the air in the vehicle.
If a large amount of foreign matter accumulates, the corrupted foreign matter and impurities will corrode the filter element and make it invalid, affecting the ventilation in the car, and the corruption and deterioration of the impurities will directly cause the peculiar smell in the car.
Replacement cycle: It is recommended that you clean the filter element every 7,500 kilometers or half a year, and replace it every 15,000 kilometers or a year.
When the vehicle is used in an environment where the air quality exceeds the standard or in a humid environment for a long time, shorten the replacement cycle of the air-conditioning filter element.
05 Dust Filter For Fuel Tank Carbon Canister
Function: Many users do not understand its function. As environmental protection requirements become more and more stringent, general vehicle fuel tanks are equipped with air pressure balance venting devices, which can effectively ensure the balance of pressure inside and outside the fuel tank while reducing direct gasoline vapor emissions; The efficiency of the system, more and more vehicles are now equipped with dust filters to filter the impurities in the air of the ventilation system.
After the vehicle is used for a long time, the dust filter element will be blocked by dust, impurities, etc., which may easily cause fuel system failure and damage to related components.
Replacement cycle: It is recommended that you have a vehicle with ash filter, clean the ash filter every 7,500 kilometers or half a year, and replace the ash filter every 15,000 kilometers or one year. For vehicles without ash filter, it is recommended to install ash filter in time, and then perform maintenance in accordance with the provisions of the maintenance manual.
The above is the automobile five filters, which play an extremely important role in daily driving life. Please pay attention to the maintenance of the 4S shop in time according to the manufacturer's maintenance recommendations, and replace the relevant original spare parts to ensure the good condition of the vehicle.
