Springtime in Colorado brings warmer days, scenic drives, and a fresh start after the long winter. Along with blooming flowers and clear skies comes something less welcome; pollen. If you drive an Audi, Volkswagen, or Porsche, now is the ideal time to check one of the most overlooked parts of your car: the cabin air filter.
Also known as a pollen filter, this small component plays a big role in the air you breathe while driving. Over time, it collects dust, dirt, mold spores, road debris, and allergens. After months of winter driving, where salt, soot, and grime are constantly kicked up, your filter is likely overdue for replacement.
A clean cabin air filter improves airflow, helps your defrost system work better, and reduces strain on your entire climate control system. Most importantly, it keeps the air inside your car fresh and free from irritants, something that really matters during allergy seasons such as Spring.
Audi, VW, and Porsche use filters that are designed with high-efficiency materials, featuring an activated carbon layer for enhanced filtration to block odors and harmful gases. However, when clogged, even the best filters can’t do their job, and some models require special tools or knowledge to access and replace them properly.
Ever notice a musty smell when you turn on the fan? Windows fogging more easily? Weaker airflow through the vents? Or maybe your allergies seem worse when you’re driving. If it’s been over a year since your last replacement, spring is the right time to get your filter replaced, especially in Denver’s’s dry, high-pollen environment.
