Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

Understanding the difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter on your 2016 Ram 1500 helps protect both engine health and passenger comfort. The engine air filter prevents dirt and debris from entering the throttle body and combustion chambers—preserving engine power, fuel economy, and preventing premature wear. The cabin air filter protects occupants from outside contaminants and improves HVAC efficiency. Both filters should be inspected regularly during routine service: replacing only the engine filter when the cabin filter is clogged leaves occupants exposed to allergens and reduces in-cabin airflow. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise we inspect both during a single visit, use OEM parts, and document service to preserve warranty coverage. Our certified technicians complete service quickly and accurately, and we’ll help you schedule appointment online or redeem a current service specials offer.
