How often do you all change your Air Filter? How often does Dodge recommend it being changed? I know someone on here can give me an answer quicker than what I could look it up..

The dealer had my truck today to do an oil change and the service guy calls me to tell me I need a new Air Filter. Of course @ $38.00 I can easily do it myself. Just curious as to how often you all change yours. My truck only has 6500 miles on it and find it hard to believe that it's time for a change already. I'm guessing it's just a way for them to try to sucker some $$$ out of me. Anyway as soon as I get a chance I'm going to check it out and see if it even remotely looks like it needs changed.

Debating on just putting another paper filter in, buy a K&N or put a CAI on it when its time...decisions....

hi there, about your question, in the dealer they change the filter everytime they make the service, but im pretty shure 20000 km in a paper filter is the max you cant get, if you dont drive in a dusti condisions. if you buy a k&n drop in filter or cai you can clean it every 10,000 miles, and for 38 a paper filter is better to buy a drop in if you dont want to expende in the cai, thats what i do. In mi olds man truck, the air filter changes every 10,000km because the dust in here, and the dealer charge 600 pesos (46usd) and i can get a drop in at autozone for the same. Check how dirty is. is the easy way.
