What does a cabin air filter do and when should I replace it?

The cabin filter cleans air entering your car's interior — replace it every 15,000-25,000 miles or sooner if you notice weak airflow or musty odors from the vents.

  • Clogged cabin filter cuts A/C and heater airflow significantly
  • Dirty filter allows allergens, dust, and pollutants into the cabin
  • California wildfire smoke seasons demand more frequent changes
  • Located behind the glove box on most vehicles — quick replacement
  • A fresh cabin filter also reduces odors and improves defroster performance

Per HVAC filter standards and manufacturer service intervals.

What's included in an oil change service?

Drain old oil, install new oil to spec, replace filter, check fluid levels, and perform a multi-point safety inspection.

  • Correct oil grade (viscosity) for your engine is non-negotiable
  • Filter quality affects how long clean oil stays clean
  • Multi-point inspection catches safety issues while you're already in
  • Tire pressure and brake thickness often checked at same visit

Per ASE-standard oil change procedure.
