Kia Cabin Air Filter Replacement

Kia Cabin Air Filter Replacement Special

As with all filters, the cabin air filter does what its name suggests and helps to prevent debris and other particles, like dust and pollen, from entering your vehicle through the A/C and heat vents.  When the filter has been overused or not replaced in a while, the buildup and debris in it will cause it to not do its job to the best of its ability. Especially with your car, any dirty filter will cause your engine to work harder leading to a decrease in fuel economy and make it underperform in other areas as well.

Signs your cabin air filter needs to be replaced:

• The most common sign is reduced airflow. Reduced airflow means that your filter is clogged and that less air is able to pass through the AC vents.
• Often times a dirty and clogged filter can easily be detected by its smell. When too much debris gets caught in the filter, you’re able to sniff out the abnormal scent.
• Reduced horsepower – your engine provides power for the AC, so when the filter is clogged, the engine has to work harder and in turn, reduces power to other areas of your vehicle
• Windows fogging when the temperatures cool down is a telltale sign something is wrong with your heating and cooling. When this occurs, getting your cabin air filter checked is always worthwhile
