Air Filters

Land Rover Air Filters 101

Whichever Land Rover SUV you drive, it has two air filters that capture infiltrates. One is for the engine, and the other is for the cabin. The engine air filter protects the motor, and the cabin air filter protects the HVAC system and the interior. They're both made of either synthetic paper, metal, foam, or cotton, most of the time, and it's often designed either flat, circular, or cylindrical. In some cases, the material may even be washable and reusable.

Often, though, you replace air filters annually, every 12,000 to 15,000 miles or so. You can also do so when you notice the signs it's time. They include obstructed airflow, dirty, damaged, or worn-out filter media, a Check Engine light and/or other warnings on the dash, and engine power loss and misfires. You may also notice acceleration problems, worsening gas mileage, and black smoke coming from the exhaust. Symptoms you may observe in your interior include whistling or other abnormal sounds coming from the vents, and a stale or dirty odor.

Is it time to install new ones? How to do so depends on what your owner's documentation says, or what the instructions from the manufacturer say to do. Generally, it requires no more than finding the filter housing (under the hood and behind the glove box for the engine filter and cabin filter, respectively), taking the old filter out, and putting the new one in. Before you buy them, though, be sure that you're getting the genuine OEM article.

Why Buy a Genuine Land Rover Air Filter vs. an Aftermarket?

When the brand you love designs air filters for its SUVs, it does so specifically for them. That's a compatibility guarantee, and one that not all aftermarket brands that offer universal-style fit options with estimated measurements can always make.
