Your SUV uses two filters: the engine air filter protects combustion; the cabin air filter cleans HVAC air for passengers.

The engine filter safeguards the 2.3L turbo and sensors from dust that can reduce power or wear components. The cabin filter traps pollen, dust, and road odors to improve in-cabin air quality. Both should be inspected on a maintenance schedule to maintain performance and comfort.

• Engine filter: upstream of MAF/turbo; performance and engine protection.
• Cabin filter: HVAC intake; passenger health and comfort.
• Different media and sizing; each has its own service interval.

Four common signs are reduced power, worse MPG, rough idle (engine), and weak airflow or musty odors (cabin).

• Engine: hesitation, richer trims, or MAF contamination risk.
• Cabin: diminished defrost/vent performance, dust on dash.
• Quick checks available with other maintenance: schedule appointment.
