Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it has been more than two years, and I have never replaced Xiaowu’s “lungs”-air filter elements. Although it has always been maintained in 4s shops, and every time the maintenance technician will check the use of the air filter, the air quality here is quite famous and is “one of the best” in the country. Seeing that many motorists on the Internet change the air filter themselves, and it is not difficult to save money (save money than 4s stores), I just want to give it a try. As the saying goes, there is a first time for everything.
First, prepare a tool Phillips screwdriver and an air filter element purchased online in advance (just buy it according to the car model, or ask customer service before buying, make no mistake)
Open the engine compartment to find the place where the air filter is installed, then use a Phillips screwdriver to find and unscrew these three screws one by one (it will be fine if you can’t screw it, you can’t take it off). After unscrewing these three screws, you will send it to this caliper. Release the ports and take off the air filter cover

Role of the air filter element: In order for the engine to work normally, a large amount of pure air must enter. If toxic impurities or substances (dust, glue, alumina, acidified iron, etc.) in the air are inhaled, the cylinder barrel and piston components will increase the burden and cause abnormal wear, resulting in mixing into the engine oil, causing greater wear and tear, resulting in shortened engine life. At the same time, the air filter also has a silencer effect.
Seeing that the air filter element plays such a big role, we must check it frequently and replace it in time as required to ensure that we can breathe clean air at all times!
