Air Filter works to remove impurities contained in the air such as dust and foreign particles to supply clean air to the engine. |
|
Without air filter, polluted air may enter the automobile's engine when power is generated through the repeated cycle of intake, compression, combustion and exhaust. |
|
This will lead to insufficient combustion and power, and also shorten engine life, due to damages by foreign particles. |
Unique Selling Point | |

Replacement Timing | ||
DENSO recommends replacement interval to be every 10,000km, with periodic cleaning at every 5,000km. |
||
However, do also refer to instruction manual and maintenance records of the vehicle for more accurate details as the right replacement interval may vary depending on models. | ||
Just like household air conditioners and vacuums, air filter element absorbs a lot of dust and other foreign objects. | |
The filter media (element) gets dark and clogging occurs after use for long term. | |
Clogging will reduce air passing through the filter. | |
This will cause imperfect combustion in the combustion process. | |
In imperfect combustion state, engine performance such as accelerating force and fuel efficiency are impaired and harmful gas emissions increased. | |
With the increase in harmful gas emission, the environment will be adversely affected. |
