50013279 Kolbenschmidt AIR FILTER 279-AP

This thing basically cleans the air that goes into your engine. It filters out dust, dirt, pollen, bugs—pretty much anything that isn’t clean air. It’s a simple job, but it does it really well. They’re usually made of pleated paper or a similar material, and it’s designed to catch all that gunk before it gets anywhere near the sensitive parts of your engine. Think of it like your engine’s first line of defense. Air is essential for combustion – that’s what makes your car go. The engine is constantly sucking in air, and this filter sits right at the intake. It ensures only clean air is getting in there, so everything runs smoothly. It's positioned before the engine’s intake manifold, preventing contaminants from entering the cylinders. A dirty air filter really hurts performance. As it gets clogged up, the engine has to work harder to pull air in. That means lower gas mileage, reduced power, and it can even damage sensitive parts over time. It acts like a shield for the engine. You’ll notice if it’s really bad—the engine might feel sluggish, or you might even get a check engine light. Replacing it is one of the easiest and cheapest maintenance things you can do, and it makes a real difference. You can find a good selection of these at places like Fixparts Online, and honestly, they're simple enough that most folks can change them themselves. It’s a good idea to check it during every oil change. We’re here to help: Air Filter (MPN 50013279) includes a 12-month warranty!
