Cars don't just consume gas, they breathe air. The engine air filter keeps dirt and debris from pulling into the engine. There's no warning light that comes on when that filter gets dirty. Instead, problems slowly develop that can turn into expensive diagnostics and repairs for issues that could have been prevented.

This week I talk with Shawn from the highly rated shop STATION OF THE STARS in the heart of Los Angeles. We talk about the critical role of air filters and mass air flow sensors (which measure the air going into the engine). And we discuss some benefits of keeping a basic scanner in your car.

LA people, reach out to STATION OF THE STARS for your next service needs. Ask Shawn about a Good Carma discount!
