Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2026 Toyota Grand Highlander relies on two distinct filters that serve separate roles: the engine air filter keeps abrasive particles out of the turbocharged 2.4L inline engine to protect components and preserve the rated 265 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, while the cabin air filter cleans the air entering the passenger compartment for comfort and health. Maintaining both filters is essential — a clogged engine filter reduces power and fuel economy, while a dirty cabin filter compromises HVAC performance and occupant air quality. At Larry H. Miller Toyota Murray in Murray, UT, our certified technicians examine both filters during routine inspections and recommend OEM replacements when needed. We use genuine Toyota parts, document work for warranty compliance, and offer transparent pricing that provides immediate savings and reduces long-term repair risks. To keep both engine and cabin systems performing, schedule service online and review our current service specials.
