Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2021 Ford F-350 Super Duty relies on two distinct filtration systems: the engine air filter that protects the 6.2L V8 and the cabin air filter that protects passengers. The engine air filter keeps abrasive particles from entering the combustion system so the truck maintains power, towing capacity, and fuel efficiency — critical when you rely on up to 21,200 lbs towing. The cabin filter removes dust, pollen, and road odors for cleaner air inside the crew cab. Maintaining both filters preserves performance and passenger comfort. At Larry H. Miller Ford Lakewood in Lakewood, CO, our certified technicians use OEM parts and factory procedures to ensure each filter change is done right the first time. That attention to detail reduces the likelihood of downstream repairs, saving you money immediately and over the long run.
