Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The engine air filter and cabin air filter serve distinct roles on your 2016 Hyundai Elantra but are equally important. The engine air filter protects the engine by keeping dirt and debris out of the intake, which preserves fuel economy, horsepower, and emissions systems; a clogged engine filter can reduce performance and increase fuel use. The cabin air filter protects occupants and the HVAC system by filtering pollen, dust, and odors. At Stevinson Hyundai, our certified technicians inspect both filters during service, recommend OEM replacements when necessary, and explain the immediate and long-term savings from proactive maintenance — our dealership prices often compare favorably to independent shops while delivering higher-level service, documented repairs, and genuine parts. Warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to remain valid, and we make that process simple. Prefer to book a time?
