Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The engine air filter and the cabin air filter on a 2017 Lexus RC 300 serve distinct but equally important roles. The engine filter guards the intake system—keeping grit and contaminants out of the throttle body, MAF sensors, and combustion chambers—so your 3.5L V6 maintains its 255 horsepower and efficient operation. The cabin filter keeps pollen, dust, and exhaust particulates out of the passenger compartment, preserving air quality and HVAC efficiency for everyone on board. Neglecting either filter can cause cascading problems: a clogged engine filter can reduce fuel economy and stress engine components, while a fouled cabin filter can create odors and strain the climate system. At Park Place Lexus Grapevine in Grapevine, TX, our certified technicians inspect both filters during routine service, use OEM parts for guaranteed fit, and provide honest recommendations. We make it easy to maintain both filters—check current service specials and schedule service online to protect performance and comfort.
