Commonly, when you change your oil filter you should change the air filter.

So basically, when you change your oil. Every three thousand miles or so.
How often should you change your air filter in your car?
best answer is totally BS .....per http://autos.yahoo.com/maintai鈥?/a> every 20 to 30k (you change your oil 3 to 6k miles) per http://www.edmunds.com/ownersh鈥?/a> every 12k mile, i say every 15 to 25 k mile depend on your driving

or even more enviroment friendly solution is use compress air (as suggested by auto mech I know) every 5k mile and replace it once you get to 30k to 45k miles.(for average driver) compressed air works great even for sensitive computer components it will work for the cars just as good.

This is complete overkill and a huge waste of money to change that filter that often. Unless you live in a dust bowl, there's no reason to change it before 12,000 miles.

suggested with oil change but if you're cheap you can blow it out with compressed air.
Every 9,000 miles, or when it is obviously dirty. Depending on where you live.
every second oil change or 6-8 thou miles
If it looks dirty change it.
every 20000-30000 miles. if u drive a lot then more often.
check, if it looks too dirty...change it=]
