Air Filter Replacement

4. Make sure that the new air filter is properly seated in the housing.
5. Replace the air cleaner housing and secure it with the clips.
Tips
* It is recommended that you change the air filter every 12,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first.
* A dirty air filter can reduce the airflow to the engine, which can cause it to run less efficiently and produce less power.
* Changing the air filter is a simple and inexpensive maintenance task that can help keep your car running well.
