I bought my car few months ago and i forgot to ask the previous owner about the air filter. I have read some posts which said it should be change every 30,000 miles. I don't know when the previous owner change last time. I have seen some air filters that used for a long period of time and they are "yellow color" and dusty. Here is the picture of my filter, do you guys think I need to replace it?

Thank you.


Taken by iphone, sorry for the low quality.

 

hell no....

 

hell no for replacing or not to replace?

 

lol its okay, but if i was you i would replace it.

 

I would definitely replace also...

 

ok thank you

 

im thinking getting a oem or k&n

 

Whatever.

If you don't know when/what the previous did or didn't do, change out all the fluids, and keep good records, as well. I would.

 

I already did all the fluid change, engine oil, tranny oil and rear diff. The reason I asked is because i see other air filters are worst than mine. I thought it is ok as long as it still shows the blue color instead of totally black.

anyways, thanks you guys

 

Its not a stock air filter. My guess is its a reusable/washable filter
