It might not bother some of us, but to others, it can be incredibly annoying.&nbsp;Thankfully, we have air filters that can sort some of that out. We\u2019ll show you why spring is the perfect time to think about replacing&nbsp;the filters in your car.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Should You Change Air Filters in the Spring?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is technically never a bad time to change the air filters&nbsp;in your car.&nbsp;Every car has two different filters, one for the engine and one for the cabin. Both serve&nbsp;important protective services for your car. The engine filter prevents things from getting into your engine, and the cabin air filter prevents things from getting into your cabin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/631\/2023\/08\/25095349\/coolant-flush-sec_b.jpg\" alt=\"Hand adjusting something in the engine\" class=\"wp-image-1353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/631\/2023\/08\/25095349\/coolant-flush-sec_b.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-ds.com\/blogs-media\/sites\/631\/2023\/08\/25095349\/coolant-flush-sec_b-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stop23.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/631\/2023\/09\/Mechanic-inspecting-t-B2_b.png\" alt=\"Mechanic looking over an engine\" class=\"wp-image-1358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stop23.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/631\/2023\/09\/Mechanic-inspecting-t-B2_b.png 768w, https:\/\/www.stop23.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/631\/2023\/09\/Mechanic-inspecting-t-B2_b-300x195.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Letting those filters remain dirty can lead to reduced fuel economy and a terrible smell in your cabin.&nbsp;It also means that pollen and other allergens may still get in because the filter&nbsp;is not able to work up to its full potential.
