What is the role of the Mitsubishi Eclipse air filter?
All the oxygen the engine needs passes through the air filter. Dust is abrasive and can cause premature engine wear. A clogged filter also causes increased fuel consumption and reduced performance.
When should you change the Mitsubishi Eclipse air filter?
Generally replace every 20,000–40,000 km or every 1–2 years. In dusty environments or for frequent off-road use, replace more frequently.
Is it difficult to change the Mitsubishi Eclipse air filter?
Difficulty level 1/5: very easy. The air filter is normally very accessible. The whole operation takes 5–10 minutes and requires no tools in most cases.
