Did you know most modern cars have a cabin filter, which is located in behind your glovebox in most cars? We check cabin filters as part of our routine servicing.

Today, whilst performing a routine service on a new customers car, which is a Holden Commodore VE SS sedan, we came across this Cabin Air Filter.

From the looks of it, the Cabin Air Filter in this Holden Commodore hasn't been replaced in a very long time. We check the cabin filter in your car at every service we do, to prevent something like this happening. 

The customer was completely unaware there is a filter inside the car and she was absolutely in a state of shock when we showed it to her. She couldn't believe she had been driving around with the filter that dirty and breathing in the dirty air. That being said, it isn't the worst cabin filter we've discovered while servicing cars. Have a look at our image gallery below for more...

Do you need to rat test your cabin air filter?

Have you had your cabin air filter checked or replaced recently? If not, ask your mechanic to replace it when you next get your car serviced. You might be surprised just how bad the air you breathe can get. 

Have a look at some of the the other ones we have replaced recently, including one with a rat of all things!!!

Come in for our Vehicle Inspection Report and book in with the team at Bens Auto Repairs and Service Centre for your cabin air filter checked and replaced.

Log Book Servicing is a proactive approach to car maintenance where regular inspections and small fixes keep your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently to prevent small problems turning into major damage and issues which could otherwise be very costly to repair.

Every passenger car (and most commercials vehicles) should be issued with a “Log Book” by the manufacturer, which lays out the specified timing and agenda for your regular log book services. You should keep your log book in your glove box for reference and recording any details, but Bens Auto Repairs and Service Centre can also refer to our database to get the required information if you've misplaced your book.

The schedule of the service will be a combination of both time or distance.

You may be tempted to delay your next log book service because your car is probably still driveable and it may not have reached BOTH the time and distance measures. While you obviously need to find availability in your budget and schedule, don't delay too long because wear and tear on the car will increase exponentially and could lead to damage which is many times more expensive than the log book service would have been.

Every car is different and the agenda for each service changes according to the schedule, which is why each vehicle is issued with a log book.

Here are some examples of what can be included:
