Keep Your Car Breathing Easy in Concord, NH: The Importance of a Clean Engine Air Filter Your vehicle’s engine needs a lot of air to run – in fact, it takes about twelve thousand gallons of air to burn a single gallon of gas. All that air has to be clean for efficient combustion, which is why the engine air filter is so crucial. If your air filter is clogged with dirt and dust, it can’t trap any more particles. The excess dust will bypass the filter and get sucked into your engine’s intake and combustion chamber. Burning dirt and pollen inside your engine does no good (and can even cause wear or damage), not to mention it chokes off the air your engine needs. A clogged air filter can hurt your car’s performance and fuel economy – replacing a dirty filter can improve gas mileage by as much as 10%. In short, a clean air filter helps your engine “breathe” properly, run smoo ... read more

🚗 Diagnosing Catalytic Converter Issues the Right Way At Accomplished Auto, we believe in fixing the root of the problem – not just the symptom. One of the most misunderstood parts of your car’s emissions system is the catalytic converter (or "cat" for short). It plays a critical role in cleaning up the exhaust gases before they exit your vehicle. But when a warning light pops up for something like a “catalyst efficiency” code (P0420 or P0430), it doesn’t always mean the catalytic converter itself has failed. In fact, many times it’s doing its job just fine, and something else upstream – like how your engine is running – is causing the problem. That’s why we take the time to test properly, not just replace parts. 🔍 Why a Prop ... read more
