How often should I change the engine air filter on my 2023 Lexus NX 450h+?

What is the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter?

• The engine air filter protects the engine and emissions system by filtering intake air; the cabin air filter cleans air for passengers, removing pollen, dust, and pollutants.
• Both filters affect comfort and efficiency: a clogged engine filter can reduce performance and mpg; a dirty cabin filter hurts air quality and HVAC performance.
• Park Place Lexus uses OEM parts and documents all work so you know exactly what was replaced; ask about warranty coverage and service financing when you schedule service.

What are signs of a bad air filter?

• Reduced acceleration, lower fuel economy, unusual engine noises, or a strong odor in the cabin are common indicators.
• For cabin filters: weak airflow from vents, increased allergy symptoms, or musty smells suggest replacement is needed.
• Bring your 2023 Lexus NX 450h+ to Park Place Lexus for a quick inspection; we’ll provide a clear estimate, recommend OEM replacements, and explain immediate and long-term savings.

Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2023 Lexus NX 450h+ uses two distinct filters that serve different but equally important roles. The engine air filter protects internal engine components and supports efficient combustion—clean air means better fuel economy, smoother acceleration, and less wear on hybrid system components.

At Park Place Lexus in Plano, TX, our technicians inspect both filters during regular service visits and recommend OEM replacements when needed. OEM parts ensure fit and filtration performance designed for your vehicle, and having replacements installed at a certified dealership preserves warranty coverage on related repairs. We also offer transparent estimates, explain immediate savings such as restored mpg and HVAC performance, and highlight long-term value from preventing costly repairs.
