Having literally zero experience with cars, I really appreciate that you have simpler videos like this explaining how to do or use things other people might consider really easy! It really gives me a place to start so I can learn more about cars and eventually fix mine on my own.

@@chrisfix These are great. I always new that paying for a body to replace your filter was way over priced.

This video is catered for beginners. This simple maintenance is very easy to do. Imagine how much a shop will charge you to do that. They will use the cheapest filter they have usually. Same goes for oil changes. I do all that myself. Have a happy holidays Chris to you and your family! I hope you take a good rest today.

thanks I'll be trying this soon.

Thanks. Just what I needed to know.

hey guys.... Chris fix here :(

Super simple and quick tutorial perfext

One thing I learned the hard way was to keep the engine air filter clean or it can affect your Mass Air Flow sensor. I use software called Automotive Wolf to monitor all the maintenance on my vehicles and I used to have it set to replace the filter once per year, now I have changed that requirement to every 10000 miles.

I really like the lower energy Chrisfix.

Really good representation buddy really appreciate it

In cleaning out dust, you could use a used dryer sheet. Very effective.

thanks man. cali has these wildfires got ash all in my filter

Great video as always. Lately, I have been binging your work. Not gonna lie though, I was honestly expecting you to say you were gonna hit it with the soap and water, when cleaning out the area haha

Can you remake this and give visual examples of what should be changed and what is ok? My trans am has an air filter about a year old and the edges of the filter are dark grey-ish but not really sure if that warrants changing or if it can be left alone for another few months. I like how you did the engine coolant vid with that dirty and clean fluids look like, was hoping you could do that for these air intake filters too.

ChrisFix It's OK to replace all the fluid. I just do it over several weeks, cycling a couple quarts at a time from the dipstick tube. And I also add a friction modifier to compensate for the removed friction material and viscosity conditioners. But only from a tried and true vendor such as Lubeguard. This way your transmission will shift and react correctly, and run smoother at all operating temperatures.

This was the video that started it all..... HEY GUYS CHRIS FIX HERE 😱

Could you make a video on how to clean out a clogged A.C drain? I tried with an air pressure hose and a long sturdy wire to loosen up anything but it didn't work.

Added the K&N cabin filter, iridium spark plugs, transmission oil was changed 2 years ago, muffler was replaced last year. A full tank is giving me half the miles. Added like 6-8 of those fuel cleaners, one seafoam one that you suggested in one of your videos. Going to Jiffy Lube soon to clean the Fuel Injection soon but wanted to see if there's something else I can try. You're the expert, they'll just rip me off.

Lol Chris ! your air filter is new !!! you dont need to replace it , here in my country we replace it when it turn all black xD

I've had a 10% improvement in fuel economy since I changed the very dirty filter and cleaned the MAF sensor in my 2005 Tarago (Previa/Estima) last week. I wish I had done them separately to see which made the bigger difference. Petrol here in Oz is about $2 a litre or over $7 per gallon.

I didn't know you were a latino bro. Thanks for your videos.

I read that K&N filters allow more air (less restricted) but they also allow a lot more dirt into the engine compared to paper or foam filters. I have been using K&N air filters for 16 years on 4 different cars and trucks. I haven’t noticed any problems with them. My main question is wouldn’t the oil filter catch anything the K&N air filter misses? BTW; thanks for making the most helpful videos I have ever seen.

@chrisfix

+Ken Mitchell The oil filter will catch stuff that gets by the filter the problem is if it gets in the oil, odds are the damage is done. The debris gets between the piston and cylinder wall and causes microscratches. That being said, under normal driving conditions, just like you, I never had any problems. If you live in a dusty area, it might be better to use a regular paper filter.

thanks so much, we appreciate.

Which filter you recommend dry filter or oil filter see K&n don’t trap dirt very well any brand you recommend thanks

I know this is a old video Chris but I just put in a k&n air filter on my silverado and then took it for a drive. I noticed my oil pressure is now 60-70 psi when I'm driving. Is that normal?

And a video on how to turn a Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 in to a 8 seater midsize suv and make it rigid

Hey Cris Fix how is your air filter going for the past 7 year?

you should try taking the air intake restrictions so your intake will breathe a lot better and get most the fuel and air mixture burned more efficiently

Thanks dude

The Philips head screws holding the air box cover in place are rusted. I can’t remove them even after WD 40. Any tip as to how to get them loose?
