Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

Understanding the difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter on your 2021 Ram 3500 helps protect both drivetrain performance and passenger comfort. The engine air filter prevents dirt from entering the 6.4L V8, preserving horsepower, torque, and fuel economy—especially important when towing or hauling. The cabin air filter focuses on interior air quality, reducing allergens and particulate matter that impact occupants. Both filters contribute to overall vehicle health: a clogged engine filter can reduce power and efficiency, while a blocked cabin filter strains the HVAC system. At Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Boise we inspect both filters during routine service, use OEM parts for reliable longevity, and log services to protect warranties.
