If you drive in dusty or sandy conditions, you should change your filter more frequently. A dirty air filter will cause your Pilot to lose 1 - 3 mpg, depending on your driving, you can save 70 - 100 gallons of gas per year simply by changing your filter regularly. The video above, shows you where the engine air filter is located in your Pilot and how to change it!
