    Having literally zero experience with cars, I really appreciate that you have simpler videos like this explaining how to do or use things other people might consider really easy! It really gives me a place to start so I can learn more about cars and eventually fix mine on my own.

    This video is catered for beginners. This simple maintenance is very easy to do. Imagine how much a shop will charge you to do that. They will use the cheapest filter they have usually. Same goes for oil changes. I do all that myself. Have a happy holidays Chris to you and your family! I hope you take a good rest today.

    Can you remake this and give visual examples of what should be changed and what is ok? My trans am has an air filter about a year old and the edges of the filter are dark grey-ish but not really sure if that warrants changing or if it can be left alone for another few months. I like how you did the engine coolant vid with that dirty and clean fluids look like, was hoping you could do that for these air intake filters too.

    One thing I learned the hard way was to keep the engine air filter clean or it can affect your Mass Air Flow sensor. I use software called Automotive Wolf to monitor all the maintenance on my vehicles and I used to have it set to replace the filter once per year, now I have changed that requirement to every 10000 miles.

    I read that K&N filters allow more air (less restricted) but they also allow a lot more dirt into the engine compared to paper or foam filters. I have been using K&N air filters for 16 years on 4 different cars and trucks. I haven’t noticed any problems with them. My main question is wouldn’t the oil filter catch anything the K&N air filter misses? BTW; thanks for making the most helpful videos I have ever seen.

    • @chrisfix
      @chrisfix  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Ken Mitchell The oil filter will catch stuff that gets by the filter the problem is if it gets in the oil, odds are the damage is done. The debris gets between the piston and cylinder wall and causes microscratches. That being said, under normal driving conditions, just like you, I never had any problems. If you live in a dusty area, it might be better to use a regular paper filter.

    • @999thenewman
      @999thenewman 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      ChrisFix It's OK to replace all the fluid. I just do it over several weeks, cycling a couple quarts at a time from the dipstick tube. And I also add a friction modifier to compensate for the removed friction material and viscosity conditioners. But only from a tried and true vendor such as Lubeguard. This way your transmission will shift and react correctly, and run smoother at all operating temperatures.

      ​@ChrisFix will you be making that? I'd love to see it. I have the Outlander SE 2016. Poor gas mileage. Poor acceleration. Current filter is original. 2 years old.
      Added the K&N cabin filter, iridium spark plugs, transmission oil was changed 2 years ago, muffler was replaced last year. A full tank is giving me half the miles. Added like 6-8 of those fuel cleaners, one seafoam one that you suggested in one of your videos. Going to Jiffy Lube soon to clean the Fuel Injection soon but wanted to see if there's something else I can try. You're the expert, they'll just rip me off.

    you should try taking the air intake restrictions so your intake will breathe a lot better and get most the fuel and air mixture burned more efficiently

    Chris, are you still using this Spectre filter? How is it holding up?

  • @ironduke6100
    @ironduke6100 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    No idea if you still reply to comments on videos this old, but let's see.
    I'm looking at those nifty slighty-cone-like cylindrical clamp-on air filters from K&N. A couple people have said they have better airflow than the stock square ones, but more importantly let the engine roar louder. They've also said they don't block dust and dirt as well. In the (paraphrased) words of "Life of Boris" channel, "You are sucking in dust, dirt, your neighbors dog, but you get the VRRRRRRRRRRRR." In addition, the descriptions says that they're apparently washable, which I find really cool if true. For my 2004 Focus, the K&N filter is $40 versus $10 for the square stock one.
    Thus my questions are:
    1. Does better airflow from these improve performance a little bit? I'm not too wrapped up about this but it would be sweet.
    2. Do they give a better sound? (Probably my most important question as my car has a great engine noise by default but I feel it could be way better.)
    3. Will it let more dirt and dust into the engine? I'm in Arizona where everything is always dusty all the time so this could be a concern.
    4. Are they actually washable, and if so, how many times could that be done? In the long run I suppose these could actually be cheaper than the stock ones this way.
    Thank you very much! I love your videos, or at least the half of them that I've been able to watch so far. There are so many XD I've replaced suspension components and my own brake pads thanks to your walkthroughs, and have decided I want to be a mechanic because I LOVED doing that. :D

    Do you have a performance air intake system like k&n or do you think it's unnecessary?

    Wow thanks for telling me , won't be using Fram anymore. What oil filter do you use?

    • @chrisfix
      @chrisfix  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      dez No problem. When I saw that I was amazed and never used Fram oil filters again. I use Purolator or the stock filter (AC Delco for the Vette and Motocraft for the Truck)

  • @MrDbro94

    I know this is a old video Chris but I just put in a k&n air filter on my silverado and then took it for a drive. I noticed my oil pressure is now 60-70 psi when I'm driving. Is that normal?
