Change Your Engine Air Filter at Tuffy Auto Service Center Elgin

September 3, 2017

Many Elgin car owners have probably wondered: "What's the harm in putting off replacing an engine air filter? The answer is that not replacing it could cause your Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor to fail. This expensive sensor is situated between your engine air filter and your engine. Dirty air filters are a leading cause of mass air flow sensor failure – and these babies can cost several hundred dollars to replace in Elgin.

Change your vehicle air filter at Tuffy Auto Service Center Elgin when it's dirty. Your vehicle engine will thank you.
