Yes, a clogged oil filter can lead to engine overheating. The oil filter helps remove impurities from the engine oil, ensuring that clean oil circulates throughout the engine for lubrication. If the oil filter becomes clogged, the oil cannot flow properly, causing inadequate lubrication, increased friction, and heat buildup in the engine. This can result in overheating and potential engine damage. Its crucial to replace the oil filter every time you change the oil, typically every 5,000–7,500 kilometers o r as recommended by your mechanic to prevent such issues.
