Have you ever thought about the air you breathe inside your car? While you're driving around Euroa or taking a road trip, you might not realise that your car's cabin air filter is hard at work. This little component plays a crucial role in keeping the air inside your vehicle fresh and clean. What is a Cabin Air Filter? A cabin air filter is a small pleated filter made from paper, cotton, or other materials. It's usually located behind the glove compartment or under the dashboard of your car. Its primary job is to filter out dust, pollen, dirt, and other pollutants from the air before it enters the cabin. This ensures that you and your passengers breathe cleaner air, which is especially beneficial for those with allergies or respiratory issues. Why is it Important to Change Your Cabin Air Filter? Over time, cabin air filters can become clogged with dirt and debris, reducing their effectiveness. When a filter is clogged, it can restrict airflow through your car's HVAC system, making it work harder and possibly even leading to unpleasant odors inside your vehicle. Regularly changing the cabin air filter can help maintain optimal air quality and ensure that your HVAC system runs efficiently. Neglecting to replace your cabin air filter can also impact the overall performance of your vehicle. A clean filter can improve airflow, which may enhance the effectiveness of your air conditioning and heating systems. So, keeping your filter fresh is not just about breathing easy—it's also about keeping your car in good shape. Trust the Experts at Murphy's Motors and Tyres If you're in Euroa and need a cabin air filter change, Murphy's Motors and Tyres is the place to go. Known for our expertise and friendly service, we can help ensure your car is in top condition. Whether you're a local or just passing through, our team is ready to assist with all your automotive needs, including expert cabin air filter replacement.

So, next time you're thinking about car maintenance, remember the small but mighty cabin air filter—and consider visiting Murphy's Motors and Tyres for expert care.

Cabin Air Filters: What They Are and Why They're Important

Keep your cool, without global warming. A proactive car air conditioning approach to protecting our environment.  As Australia begins phasing down HFC use (from January 2018), many new vehicle manufacturers may be switching to new air conditioning systems using the more environmentally friendly refrigerant R-1234yf, instead of R-134a. The benefits of using R-1234yf "Twelve Thirty Four", as R-1234yf is sometimes known, is an HFO type refrigerant delivering high performance, resulting in a more efficient air-conditioning system, fewer emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Hydrofluoroolefins (HFO's) have a double carbon bond meaning they trap less heat in the atmosphere than Hydrofluorocarbons (HFC's) and break down faster. Importantly, R-1234yf systems are specifically engineered to prevent refrigerant leakage and loss, including into the interior of the vehicle. The leakage of refrigerants contributes considerably to greenhouse gases. Why the switch? Older type refrigerants accumulate in the upper atmosphere as greenhouse gases and contribute significantly to Global Warming for a considerable time. In the mid-'90s, the old R-12 (or Freon), which takes a long time to break down into a non-greenhouse gas, was replaced with R134a, which breaks down much quicker. R-1234yf takes that improvement to the next level, breaking down in less than half the time of R-134a (and a fraction of the time R-12 can take). R-134a will remain in use for some time and a licensed mechanic can still service R-134a air con systems, but new vehicles will likely use the new systems with R-1234yf. Some already are. Irrespective of what type of refrigerant your car air conditioner uses, a car service workshop undertaking air conditioner service must have the right knowledge and equipment to handle these gases responsibly. You should always take your car to a mechanic with the skills and specialist equipment to undertake air conditioning service safely and correctly.

Modern radiator coolants not only protect your car from overheating, or the fluid from freezing, they also protect the radiator system from corrosion. Murphy's Motors and Tyres in Euroa are very knowledgeable and experienced in looking after these systems.  It is recommended that you exchange your radiator coolant fluid every two years or 40,000 km's whichever comes first. However the size of the engine, the climate in your area, the age of your current coolant, and the total miles that have been driven can all affect the need to replace the coolant in your radiator. Knowing when to replenish your radiator fluid isn't always easy - obviously, when it has gone a dirty brown colour it's a sign it probably needs to be flushed and replaced - however even fresh-looking coolant could have lost its corrosion protection properties and without measuring its reserve alkalinity there's no signal that it is no longer protecting your vehicle components, and it could even be doing more damage than good. Maintaining good coolant means your radiator system will be much better protected from corrosion and will have a longer life span, it will help prevent you from having to replace expensive engine components. At Murphy's Motors and Tyres in Euroa at your request, we will perform a full 65 Point Vehicle Inspection report for free as part of any minor, major or log book service. Part of this inspection includes checking the level and condition of coolant in your system and the written report will advise you if we feel a radiator flush, fluid replacement or any repairs are required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.

Even if it looks clean, your coolant still might need replacing!
