Video tutorial

The air filter of a car should be checked every 5,000 to 6,000 miles on average and needs to be cleaned. But how do you clean a filter? There are specific products to use for cleaning the filter; for sports filters, we recommend the BMC cleaning kit. The detergent mixed with warm water is used to degrease the oil that gets trapped.

The role of the air filter is to trap dirt from outside, and it also needs to be lubricated when installed. However, to avoid clogging the filter too much, it is advisable to spray oil only on the outer part, which is in contact with the incoming air.
