Your air filter serves the same purpose as your fuel filter and oil filter. That's to prevent outside contaminants from fouling essential systems and parts. Your Subaru vehicle most likely has two in place. The first is the engine air filter, while the second is the cabin air filter.
How do Air Filters Work?
Simple. The engine air filter is located near your air intake, allowing it to capture pollutants and debris before they can collect in the motor and restrict airflow.
Your cabin air filter is typically placed behind the glove compartment, though it can also be found under the front cowling on the passenger side of the vehicle. It keeps allergens and irritants from sneaking through the ductwork, out of the air vents, and into the air that you breathe.
How Can You Spot A Failing Air Filter?
Sadly, your air filters will either get clogged up with particulates or degrade with age. That's not good, since it affects the air that you and your engine rely upon. Signs include:
- Engine misfires
- Weakened engine performance
- Odd engine noises
- The cabin air smells musty
- Whistling sounds from your air vents
- Inconsistent cabin air temperatures
