Chevrolet Silverado: Vehicle Checks / Engine Air Filter Life System

Chevrolet Silverado 2019-2026 Owners Manual / Vehicle Care / Vehicle Checks / Engine Air Filter Life System

If equipped, this feature provides the engine air filter’s remaining life and best timing for a change. The timing to change an engine air filter depends on driving and environmental conditions.

When to Change the Engine Air Filter

When the Driver Information Center (DIC) displays a message to replace the engine air filter at the next oil change, follow this timing.

When the DIC displays a message to replace the engine air filter soon, replace the engine air filter at the earliest convenience.

The system must be reset after the engine air filter is changed.

If the DIC displays a message to check the engine air filter system, see your dealer.

Place the vehicle in P (Park).
Display the Air Filter Life on the DIC. See Driver Information Center (DIC) (Base Level) or Driver Information Center (DIC) (Midlevel and Uplevel).
