1. Air Filter:
The air filter in a 2004 Toyota Corolla is located inside the engine compartment, usually inside a housing or air box. Its main purpose is to prevent dust, dirt, and other contaminants from entering the engine. A clean air filter is crucial for optimal engine performance and fuel efficiency. It is generally recommended to replace the air filter every 12,000 to 15,000 miles or as specified in your vehicle's maintenance schedule.
2. Cabin Air Filter:
In addition to the engine air filter, your 2004 Toyota Corolla also has a cabin air filter. The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box or in the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system. Its primary function is to remove dust, pollen, and other particles from the incoming air before it enters the vehicle's interior. Replacing the cabin air filter regularly helps improve air quality inside the cabin, ensuring a more comfortable driving environment. Depending on your location and usage, it is generally recommended to replace the cabin air filter every 12,000 to 15,000 miles or as specified in your vehicle's maintenance schedule.
