The engine air filter protects the 2.7L twin‑turbo V6 intake from dust/debris; the cabin air filter cleans HVAC air for passengers.

Both filters serve different systems but are equally important—one preserves performance and turbo longevity, the other improves in-cabin comfort. In Greater Boston traffic and seasonal pollen, keeping both filters fresh helps maintain throttle response and interior air quality. We install OEM-spec filters for proper fit and seal.

• Engine filter: safeguards combustion and turbos
• Cabin filter: reduces dust, pollen, and odors
• Each has its own service interval and access point

Reduced power, lower fuel economy, and rough idle indicate a clogged engine filter; weak airflow and musty odors point to a clogged cabin filter.

• Performance: hesitations, sluggish throttle
• Efficiency: more frequent fuel stops
• Comfort: reduced HVAC airflow or stale smell
