changing airfilters more often

AdT · 6th June 2007, 19:40

Yesterday my ZT diesel 2005 with T3ub and intakemod 1 has had its first big inspection service at 42.000km's.
Like most of us I love to keep my car in a good as possible condition, so I change the oil more frequently than indicated.
However I never thought of changing my airfilters more often.
The fitter told me the filters were very dirty.
I now notice that the car is much more responsive than before the service.
So changing your airfilters more often might be a good idea.

My Audi A3 tends to go around 16-18k between services, and I really noticed the improvement after the filter was changed this time, so I'll be changing filters between services too!
