The engine air filter protects the 3.5L V6 intake, while the cabin air filter cleans air entering the HVAC and passenger area.

The engine filter keeps dirt out of the combustion air stream to help maintain performance and fuel economy. The cabin filter targets dust, pollen, and debris before it reaches occupants through the vents. Both are service items and should be inspected periodically based on use and environment.

• Engine filter = intake air for combustion
• Cabin filter = air for the HVAC/passenger compartment
• Each affects comfort, efficiency, and component longevity

Common signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, rough idle, weak HVAC airflow, and musty odors.
