The engine air filter sits inside a sealed airbox in the engine compartment, accessible from the top via clips or screws.

This housing feeds the 3.5L twin‑turbo V6 and is designed for a tight seal to prevent unfiltered air from entering the intake. During service, our team inspects the airbox gasket and ducts for cracks or loose connections. We also ensure the filter seats correctly to maintain proper MAF readings.
