Our Geelong mechanic ensures customers breathe easy!
March 20, 2016Recently we had a new customer bring their Mazda 6 to us for a service. Our Geelong mechanic checked the condition of the cabin air filter and discovered it had never been changed. This can easily be overlooked as the filter is accessed through the glovebox.
As you can see by the photo, this particular filter definitely needed changing and our customer was pretty grossed out when we showed them the condition of the original filter! They were very grateful to our mechanic for changing the filter. Particularly as some members of their family suffer from allergies. Pollen, allergens and various fuel-based contaminants from the outside road environment all pass through and are filtered by the cabin air filter. A cabin air filter:
- eliminates nearly 100% of exhaust pollutants and airborne contaminants
- enables peak operating efficiency of the vehicle’s heating / air conditioning system
- provides clean air for you and your passengers
- is recommended to be changed every 20,000kms.
It’s the smaller things such as this that we make sure we always check. Our Geelong mechanic’s don’t just do the bare minimum when it comes to servicing and maintaining your car. We make sure nothing is overlooked and that every aspect of your vehicle is attended to.
If you think the air is dirty inside your car and you can’t stop sneezing then come and see us at our Geelong workshop and our mechanic’s will happily check your cabin air filter. Call in or contact us, we’d love to keep you breathing easy!
