When you’re driving along the road, your climate control takes in air from the outside and then heats or cools it appropriately before sending it through the vents to you. However, there are all sorts of particles and pollutants in the air in front of your car, not to mention bugs and other debris, so you have a cabin air filter that keeps all those out. When that filter gets dirty, we’re here to help you replace it at Rochester Volkswagen.
Most Volkswagen experts recommend changing your cabin air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles in normal conditions, and every 10,000 miles in extreme conditions (like dirt roads or other high-particle situations). Most importantly, you should get your filters checked regularly to make sure they’re not dirty, and that can happen either as part of our complimentary multi-point inspection or by your request. You can even check them yourself fairly easily, and you’ll see the dirt and debris that have been trapped in a dirty filter.
While the cabin air filter will rarely fail and start letting in pollutants, it can get so clogged that little to no air can get through. When this happens, the airflow out of your vents is weak, and sometimes there may even be a smell associated with the dirty filter. The important thing is to let air through so that you can have fresh air in your cabin, and the best way to do that is to replace your dirty filters as soon as possible.
