Pontiac G6 Air Filter

The Pontiac G6 also contains an engine air filter which is used to pull out the small particles of dirt so that it won't affect the engine. This air filter works on the principle of capturing particles which are as small as 5 microns so that only clean air is allowed to enter the engine to help it run at its optimal efficiency and to burn fuel optimally. This situation gradually leads to blocked airflow and as such it needs replacement after some time for efficient working of engines. Different air filter types have been used in the Pontiac G6, they can either be the standard pleated paper or high performance ones. The standard filters are constructed from bonded wood pulp fibers while performance filters are constructed from cotton gauze or synthetic and as such the former may require replacing every 15,000 miles while the later go up to 50,000 miles. The main difference between performance and standard automotive, industrial and hepa filters is in their design and their ability to translate performance without having to compromise the level of filtration. Daily check and changing of the air filter on the Pontiac G6 ought to be done frequently especially when the weather conditions are harsh.

Each OEM Pontiac G6 Air Filter we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
