Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2016 Toyota Avalon requires attention to two separate air filtration systems: the engine air filter and the cabin air filter. The engine air filter keeps dirt and particles out of the intake stream so the V6 3.5L engine breathes clean air—this protects internal components, preserves horsepower, and supports the Avalon’s 21 city / 31 highway MPG performance. The cabin air filter keeps pollen, dust, and road contaminants out of the passenger cabin to maintain air quality and HVAC efficiency. Maintaining both filters is essential for longevity and comfort. At Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray in Murray, UT, our factory-trained technicians perform a complete inspection and explain the condition of each filter, the benefits of replacing them, and the expected cost and timelines. We prioritize OEM parts, clear communication, and efficient service so you spend less time in the shop and more time on the road.
