Filter Services

What We Do 

A clean fuel filter is essential for efficient engine performance. Your vehicle manufacturer recommends routine fuel filter replacement services to remove and replace dirty or clogged fuel filters. Grease Monkey© offers both gasoline and diesel fuel filter replacement services.

How to Know Your Fuel Filter Needs to be Replaced

Your owner’s manual includes manufacturer recommendations for fuel filter replacement. Bad fuel filter symptoms include the following: 

• Difficulty starting the vehicle
• Fuel system component failure
• Illuminated Check Engine/Malfunction Indicator light 
• Loss of power
• Loud and unusual noises
• Misfiring
• Reduced fuel economy
• Rough idling
• Slow acceleration
• Vehicle stalling

How Fuel Filter Replacement Services Work 

Grease Monkey technicians determine the type of fuel filter needed for your vehicle and replace it. Replacing a fuel filter requires proper training and the right information: in-line fuel filters are standard in many modern cars and integrated into the fuel system

Things to Consider About Fuel Filter Replacement Services 

As noted above, not all user manuals include fuel filter replacement schedules. Grease Monkey technicians will check resources to select the correct type of fuel filter for your vehicle and recommend an appropriate schedule for replacing filters based on your manufacturer’s recommendations.

Cabin Air Filter Replacement Services 

What We Do 

Grease Monkey technicians routinely change air filters in addition to fuel filter replacement services. Air filters keep dust, smog, pollen, and other external pollutants out of the cabin. Dirty cabin air filters reduce the efficiency of air conditioning while forcing the A/C to work harder. 

How to Know Your Cabin Air Filter Needs to be Replaced

You may need to replace your cabin air filter if your car develops any of the following symptoms:

• Excessive noise when running the A/C or heating system
• Whistling sounds from the cabin air intake ducts
• Weak airflow from A/C ducts, even when the heating or A/C is set to high
• Musty odors in the cabin air
• Foggy or icy windows that take a long time to clear

How Cabin Air Filter Replacement Services Work 

Grease Monkey technicians check your owner’s manual or other resources for the correct type of cabin air filter and replace the old filter. Technicians check cabin air filters in the multipoint inspection during a Full Service Oil Change.

Things to Consider About Cabin Air Filter Replacement Services 

Changing air filters before they become clogged with dirt and debris helps your A/C work efficiently and improves cabin air quality. Follow the cabin air filter replacement schedule in your owner’s manual.
