Air Filter Replacement in San Carlos, CA

Welcome to Toole’s Garage - a family owned and operated full service auto repair shop. Air filter replacement is one of the many services we offer at our San Carlos facility. Driver and passengers need clean air to breath, but your car’s engine needs clean air as well. That’s why we highly recommend regular cabin air filter replacement, as well as engine air filter replacement.


When you bring your vehicle to our San Carlos auto repair shop, we provide a complimentary digital vehicle inspection. One of the items we check is the engine air filter. When it’s dirty, it impacts quality of the air made available to the engine, which in turn impacts engine performance.


We also check at what time intervals your vehicle’s manufacturer recommends inspection and replacement of the cabin air filter. Under normal circumstances we follow manufacturer recommended schedule. But there are times when more frequent air filter replacement is a necessity. If you remember the 2020 wildfire season, entire Bay Area was blanketed with smoke – both engine and cabin air filters needed to be replaced long ahead of their normal replacement schedules.

Toole’s Garage is the premier San Carlos auto repair shop. We offer complete car care, and we stand behind our work with the industry leading nationwide 36 month / 36,000 mile warranty. When you bring your car to us, you will also receive superior customer service, while your vehicle will be in the highly capable hands of our technicians – who are certified by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE).


So if it’s been a while since the air filters in your vehicle have been changed, or if you know they are due for replacement, bring your vehicle to Toole’s Garage in San Carlos. We will be happy to inspect them for you, and if they need to be replaced, we can do so the same day. So give us a call, or make an appointment online, on our website.
