Its role
The air filter prevents impurities from entering the engine and causing irreversible damage to the moving parts (pistons, valves).
A good air filter is capable of trapping extremely fine particles of a diameter of under 20 microns. It must be cleaned regularly: every 10 000 kilometres, in general, under normal use, or even every time you go off-roading or in a very sandy or dusty environment.
