04 Neon SE. How often do you guys change the air filter? (All stock setup).

it's 2 years and 21K miles for me. Although I took the filter out a yr ago when doing something else. it was clear... tapped it a few times and put it back. I am in NC drive on normal paved roads.

When I had a stock DD, I changed the filter every year. Not everyone does that as often as I did though.

Depending on conditions a filter can last quite a while. Generic recommendations are 30,000 miles.

Our Van's filter was still looking good at 30,000 miles.

I clean my K&N every 50,000 miles.
