Anyone know how often an air filter and oil filter need to be changed for a Toyota 2017????
 

My opinion is that it depends on where you live and travel. If you're on dirt roads, or in areas where more dust is carried by winds (Wyoming for example), or in the city where there are more diesel exhaust or smog, then more often would be my choice. But if you are mainly on highways and paved roads, and in areas with not much dust, then you can push the limit to the higher recommendation.
 

Hah. Well i am the queen of not exactly following the rules. Change the oil filter with each oil change. That part i actually do. How often i change the oil depends upon whether i have the money and wether i am using a synthetic oil or not. My subaru will never go even the recommended without needing a quart. Therefore it gets much better care than my ford escape. My escape can take more abuse. As far as a cabin air filters go…i have never changed one. Blow it out with an air compressor. Even the engine air filter can be blown out several times. Escape now has 190000 miles, subaru 140000.
