Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter for a 2011 Toyota Matrix is about who they protect and how they affect your drive. The engine air filter keeps dust, pollen and road grit out of the intake system so combustion stays efficient; a clean engine filter helps preserve horsepower, maintains the 2011 Toyota Matrix’s fuel economy and lowers the chance of premature engine wear. The cabin air filter stops pollen, dust and exhaust particulates from entering the passenger compartment so HVAC performance and in-cabin air quality remain high. At Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray in Murray, UT, our technicians inspect both filters during routine service. We document findings, recommend OEM replacements when needed, and explain the immediate and long-term savings of preventive replacement.
