Filters in a vehicle serve several important functions to ensure the smooth operation and longevity of the engine and other systems. Here are the main types of filters and their uses:

  1. Air Filter: Traps dirt, pollen, dust, and other contaminants from the air before it enters the engine. This ensures that only clean air mixes with the fuel for combustion, improving engine performance and efficiency1.
  2. Oil Filter: Removes contaminants from the engine oil, such as metal particles, dirt, and carbon deposits. This helps maintain the oil’s effectiveness in lubricating engine components and prolongs the engine’s life2.
  3. Fuel Filter: Filters out impurities and debris from the fuel before it reaches the engine. This prevents clogging of the fuel injectors and ensures efficient fuel combustion
