Road dust, fuel system condensation and engine-oil sludge are unseen enemies that can cause harm to
your engine, or prevent it from working at its best. Your best defense? Visit your local dealer for genuine OEM
filter replacements to help ensure that your engine lives a healthy, high-mileage life. Refer to your vehicle's Warranty
and Maintenance Booklet for recommended maintenance schedules.
Oil Filters
Motor
oil circulates through
your engine to lubricate all the moving parts. Along the way,
dirt, grit and fine metallic and carbon particles contaminate
motor oil and, if improperly filtered out, may ruin your engine.
Today's high-detergent oils are formulated to suspend
contaminants until they can be effectively trapped by the oil
filter. Regularly changed oil filters protect your engine
by removing the suspended particles from your motor oil.
Fuel Filters
Today's
sophisticated fuel injection
systems demand clean fuel in order to run smoothly. From the gas
tank to your engine, fuel can pick up contaminants
like dirt and condensation. If these contaminants are not
properly filtered out they will cause reduced engine performance,
rough idling and may eventually damage the sensitive fuel
injection components. Fuel filters changed using the recommended
maintenance schedule can help you avoid expensive repairs.
Air Filters
Your engine needs a great deal
of air to run properly. If air is not properly filtered, dust and other suspended particles get into the combustion
chamber where they may become lodged between the piston and cylinder wall, causing wear. This may result in loss of
acceleration, decreased power and lower gas mileage.
