Your air filters are vital to peak performance and efficiency so taking the time to have them replaced in spring will result in an even more enjoyable daily cruising experience for everyone in the Subaru. When you choose Thelen as your go-to mid-Michigan Subaru service provider, you can trust that the components used in your appointment are made for your vehicle. 

The Importance of Air Filter Service on Your Subaru

A Clean Engine Air Filter Improves Performance & Efficiency –

The engine air filter in your Subaru is responsible for making sure that the airflow sent through your engine is as clean as possible. The cleaner the air, the less effort your engine has to muster to achieve its peak performance. As such, you get improved overall fuel efficiency as well to go along with the excellent and dependable performance you love about your Subaru. This can also prevent faster wear and tear than usual. 

Your Cabin Air Filter Provides Fresh Air & Helps Your HVAC System –

When your cabin air filter is dirty and/or clogged up, everyone in the vehicle will notice that the air quality in the vehicle is less than anticipated. A clogged filter also makes it harder for your vehicle’s HVAC system to efficiently get fresh air into the cabin, causing your Subaru to have to use more energy to get your vehicle properly cooled off. Taking the opportunity to have your cabin air filter replaced will not only improve the freshness of the air you breathe by more readily removing airborne debris such as dust and pollen, but it also makes your vehicle function even more efficiently overall.
