CABIN AIR FILTERS When air enters your car’s cabin, it must pass through your cabin air filter. This car component helps prevent pollution from the road from getting into your lungs while you’re driving. As the air passes through the heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems, your car’s cabin air filter will catch dust, pollen, and other unwanted airborne particulates. This will allow...
Your Nissan’s engine has an intake air cleaner which contains an air filter element that prevents foreign materials such as dust and debris from entering the cylinders. If foreign materials make their way into the engine, they cause internal damage and premature wear. Whenever the engine is running, the air filter is removing and collecting foreign materials from the intake air and will...
