Reasons to change your air filter
It is important to change the cabin air filter of your 2017 Infiniti Q50 for several reasons:
- Better engine performance: A clean air filter allows for a sufficient amount of air to reach the engine, which can improve overall performance and fuel efficiency.
- Protecting the engine: A dirty or clogged air filter can restrict the airflow to the engine, which can damage the engine over time.
- Enhancing the air quality inside the car: The cabin air filter helps to remove pollutants, dust, and other allergens from the air inside the car, which improves the air quality for everyone on board.
- Extending the life of the HVAC system: The cabin air filter also helps to keep the heating and air conditioning system running smoothly, which helps prolong the life of the system.
- Improving the air quality outside the car: A clean air filter can also help improve the air quality outside the car by reducing the emissions of pollutants.
By changing the air filter on a regular basis, you can ensure that your Infiniti Q50 engine and HVAC system are running efficiently, and that the air inside and outside the car is clean and healthy.

How often should I change my cabin air filter?
Generally, it is recommended to replace the cabin air filter once per year, or every 12,500 miles, whichever comes first. If you drive in a heavily polluted area, or in an area with high levels of dust, pollen, or other allergens, it may be necessary to change the filter more frequently. Similarly, if you often drive on dirt or gravel roads, or if you use your 2017 Infiniti Q50 for off-roading, the filter may need to be changed more often.
It’s also important to pay attention to the signs that the filter needs to be changed, such as:
- Increased dust and debris inside the cabin
- Unusual smells coming from the vents
- Reduced airflow from the vents
