Do you want to make your Engine Struggle to breath? Well, that is exactly what happens when you don't change your vehicle's engine air filter. How? Ever try drinking through a pinched straw and how difficult it is to do that? That is what your car's engine is going through when it has to breathe air through a clogged air filter.

The gasoline engine on your 2014 Mazda 3 / 2015 Mazda 3 / 2016 Mazda 3 / 2017 Mazda 3 / 2018 Mazda 3 like every other internal combustion engine needs air to efficiently burn the fuel.

It can't just breathe the air from the atmosphere directly because the air is full of dirt, dust, moisture and other pollutants. You definitely don't want any of these to get in your engine. The air needs to be filtered. That is where the engine air filter comes in the picture. Engine air filter filters the air before it is used inside the engine.

Engine air replacement is a quick 3-4 minute process that you can easily perform at home without any tools whatsoever. A process that would cost you easily $50 in labor at your local dealership / mechanic shop in addition to the time spend and the inconvenience of calling and scheduling an appointment and taking time out of your schedule to go it replaced.

Thank you for even adding the easy “no duh” stuff. Every little detail helps. Cheers!

Seen a few videos showing how to do this and yours is by far the best. Great camera close-ups and simple to follow instructions. We'll done, sir!

[CS-yssy]

This was so clear and easy, thank you! I just changed my filter and saved $100+ on installation etc.

[davidbarnett]

This was very helpful. It was a bit simplistic about how to lift the hood but I know some folks need that.The detail in the rest was spot in. It made changing the filter a piece of cake.

[crosseyedandpainless]

Thanks. This video saved me money and made it easy to do. Can't believe what the dealership was going to charge for this and cabin air filter. Thanks again.

[andrewpearl]

Thank you for a clear and concise demonstration!

[swapnildave]

Wow didn’t know this process so easy to do! Great stuff !

[diymktavgs]

Your version has more detail instructions about the 3 back tab removals. Thanks.

[vejoshiraptor]

Fantastic videos. Watched this one and a few others for my Mazda 3. It’s very helpful how clear it is, how every detail is covered, and how good the camera angles are. Appreciate your work!

[bobmccoy]

Best filter replacement video I’ve ever seen! Great job!

[donniecardwell]

Not new to various car stuff, but this is awesome! Instructional, accurate, and easy to follow. Keep it up!

[hanksmith]

I absolutely love your videos. They are the best I have see on line.

[AmarothEng]

Phenomenally well explained and demonstrated. I'd say the only thing I would add would be the specs of the filter which goes in.

[anvitaupadhyay]

Merry Christmas! Changed my filter in a few mins with your video... Made my Christmas ☃️ better!

[nosirrahm]

Thanks for the great video and the close ups so I know what I’m looking for when I do it. 🙌🏽

[abedee]

Thank you for making it easy! Was worried before I saw this.

[Larotian]

Simple, straight to the point. Thanks boss 👍

[jordanbirnbaum]

Great video, you made this super easy!

[SunnyUBC]

Another hit video, very useful - mechanics charge atleast 50$ labor to do this quick easy work.

[berttitilator]

Great video. So many videos talk you through what to do but their hands cover up every thing and you see nothing. This or they have poor lighting and constantly apologize for it. Hands in the way don't help and dark video does no better. Thanks you! This is how a HOW TO video should be. Slow and where you can visually see what is going on as it's explained. THANKS this was perfect!
