Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

Understanding the difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter helps you prioritize maintenance on your 2020 Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The engine air filter preserves power, efficiency, and engine life by filtering the air the turbocharger ingests; the cabin air filter protects passengers by filtering outside pollutants before they enter the interior. Both influence comfort and long-term costs: neglected engine filters can reduce performance and strain the turbo, while neglected cabin filters can affect HVAC performance and interior air quality. Herb Chambers Alfa Romeo of Boston offers both inspections and replacements with OEM parts, factory-trained technicians, and warranty-safe procedures.
