fuel air oil filters

An essential part of car servicing is routine replacement of filters but, because they are often neglected, Rob Marshall reveals what they are and why periodic replacement is so important. Keeping the various fluids and fuels clean is essential to prolonging your car’s life and enhancing its reliability. Unfortunately, the ‘out of sight, out of mind’ attitude to maintenance can prevail, which is very much a false economy. Clogged filters can not only increase fuel consumption and make your car run less efficiently but a breakdown might also result. Consult the car maker’s service schedule closely, to ensure that the stipulated service work has been completed and do not be worried if a garage decides to change a filter prematurely. Yet, by leaving a filter in place for too long, you risk voiding the manufacturer’s warranty.
