2015 Toyota Highlander Air Filter in Murray, UT

The engine air filter sits in the engine bay inside a rectangular air box, typically on the driver-side fender area.

This housing feeds the 3.5L V6 intake and opens with a few clips or screws for quick inspection or replacement. Keeping this pathway sealed ensures your 270-hp engine breathes clean air for reliable power and fuel economy across Utah’s mixed city and mountain routes.

• Under-hood air box with clips/screws
• Feeds the 3.5L V6 (regular unleaded)
• Seating near driver-side fender area

The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box in the HVAC intake area.

On most 2015 Toyota Highlander models, you lower the glove box and access a rectangular slot that holds the cabin filter. This filter screens dust and pollen common along the Wasatch Front before air reaches passengers and the A/C system.

• Behind the glove box access panel
• Protects HVAC evaporator and cabin air
• Slides out of a rectangular housing

The engine filter protects the V6 intake for combustion, while the cabin filter cleans air entering the passenger compartment through the HVAC system.

Engine filters help maintain power and efficiency for the 3.5L V6 by blocking dirt before it reaches the throttle body and MAF sensor. Cabin filters trap dust and pollen for cleaner air inside—useful across Murray, Holladay, and Sandy during seasonal pollen peaks.

• Engine: intake protection and performance
• Cabin: passenger air quality and HVAC health
• Two different locations and service steps

Common signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, rough idle, weak HVAC airflow, and musty odors.

A dirty engine filter can restrict the 3.5L V6’s airflow, causing sluggish acceleration or uneven idle. A saturated cabin filter often limits fan output and can trap moisture, creating odors—especially after winter road grime or high-pollen months around the Salt Lake Valley.

• Engine: hesitation or decreased MPG
• Cabin: weak vents, dusty interior, odors
• Visual check: dark, debris-loaded filter media

Yes—the engine filter is typically DIY-friendly, while the cabin filter is also accessible but may require glove box removal.

Many owners can swap both filters with basic tools. Dealer service at Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray adds an intake housing check, a visual MAF inspection, and fitment of OEM-spec filters—helpful for year-round reliability across Murray, Salt Lake City, and West Jordan.
