Engine Air Filter
How often should it be changed under normal conditions? Thinking of doing it at 11K miles.
Too early? |

It should be done for free at your oil service.

Dealer does it for free when you service the car with them. You don't have to worry about doing it yourself until your warranty expires. That being said every 15-30k miles is usually when the filter needs to be cleaned/replaced.

Update - tech looked at the filter after 11K miles - said there were either 2 or 3 specs of dust on it.
No change obviously. |

Make them change that shit; if they don't want to change it, make them give you a new one and stash it away for once the car is out of warranty.
