Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter on a 2016 Lexus IS 350 is fundamental to both performance and comfort. The engine air filter protects the 3.5L V6 from dust and contaminants that can reduce horsepower and fuel economy; a clean engine filter helps the vehicle hit its designed 306 hp and maintain efficient combustion. The cabin air filter, by contrast, traps pollen, dust, and pollutants to keep the interior air clean for passengers and to help the HVAC system operate efficiently. At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX, our technicians inspect both systems during routine service and recommend OEM replacements tailored to your driving environment. Maintaining both filters preserves long-term engine health and occupant comfort, delivers savings by avoiding premature component wear, and supports warranty compliance.
