Common Air Filter Problems (Part 2)
Here are other common problems that could be solved by replacing your air filter:
- Smell of fuel in the exhaust
If you smell fuel when starting the vehicle, it’s because insufficient air is entering the fuel injection system and the excess unburnt fuel exits the vehicle through the exhaust pipe (hence the smell). When you replace the air filter, the smell should go.
- Air filter looks dirty
A brand new air filter is a white / off-white colour, which will slowly darken as it accumulates dust and dirt over time. A visual inspection of your air filter under bright light will show a lot of dirt, but not all the tiny particles can be easily seen.
- Check engine light comes on
An inadequate supply of air can result in carbon deposits accumulating in the engine, which will eventually trigger your check engine light. If the light comes on, check your air filter to see if it needs replacing before you run other diagnostics. For this reason, most vehicle manufacturers recommend changing your air filter every 18,000 km or every 12 months, whichever comes first, regardless of how clean your air filter appears to be.
