Yes. In dusty regions like Lahore, Karachi, Multan, etc.:

Air filters clog faster, reducing airflow.

This causes the ECU to miscalculate fuel-air mixture, resulting in rich o r lean burn, sputtering, o r hesitation.

✅ Inspect air filter every 5,000 km and replace every 10,000–12,000 km in dusty zones. Use genuine o r high-flow filters.
