Inspect the engine air filter at every scheduled oil change and replace it sooner in dusty or high-pollen conditions.

Draper's higher-elevation winds and seasonal pollen can load a filter faster than mild climates; if you commute daily on Bangerter or Lone Peak Parkway or drive unpaved roads near Suncrest, plan for more frequent checks. The service team will record condition at each visit and recommend replacement timing tailored to your driving patterns.

• Inspect at each oil change or service visit
• Replace sooner with heavy dusty or off-road use
• Service records track filter life for future visits

Check the cabin air filter annually or whenever HVAC airflow drops or occupants notice odors; replace sooner in high-pollen or dusty seasons.

Families running errands to the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium or visiting Corner Canyon trails will see seasonal pollen spikes; replacing the cabin filter keeps HVAC airflow strong and the passenger compartment smelling clean. Our technicians inspect cabin filters during routine service and note replacement recommendations in your service record.

• Annual inspection recommended for most drivers
• Replace sooner with reduced airflow or musty odors
• Helpful for allergy control during local pollen seasons

The engine air filter is located inside a rectangular plastic airbox in the engine bay, connected to the intake tube near the front of the engine.

Access is usually through clips or screws on the airbox cover; the element sits inside and lifts out for replacement. During a service visit in Draper our technicians open the intake housing, inspect the element, and check surrounding seals for proper fit and debris.

• Found in the engine bay airbox, front/side of engine
• Secured by clips or screws—no major trims usually required
• Technician inspects housing, seals, and intake tubing

The engine air filter cleans combustion air for the engine; the cabin air filter cleans the air entering the passenger compartment through the HVAC system.

The engine filter protects engine performance and fuel economy by removing dust and debris from intake air. The cabin filter removes pollen, dust, and odors from HVAC airflow to protect passengers. Both play distinct roles; replacing one does not substitute for the other.

• Engine filter = protects combustion and MAF sensor
• Cabin filter = protects HVAC system and passenger air quality
• Both inspected during standard filter service

Common signs include reduced engine power and fuel economy for the engine filter, and weak HVAC airflow or musty odors for the cabin filter.

If you notice slower acceleration, rough idle, or poorer mileage, the engine filter or related intake components may need attention. If the HVAC blows weakly, or occupants report odors after running the heater or AC, the cabin filter likely needs replacement. Technicians at LHM Ford Draper will inspect both and document findings.

• Engine: reduced power, rough idle, worse fuel economy
• Cabin: weak airflow, unpleasant or musty smells
• Inspection confirms filter condition and related checks

You can usually replace the engine air filter yourself; the cabin filter and intake/MAF inspection are often easier and more reliable when done by a dealer technician.

DIY replacement of the engine filter is common because access to the airbox is straightforward. The cabin filter may require trim or glove box access and a proper seal. LHM Ford Draper offers OEM-spec Motorcraft filters and performs intake and MAF visual checks that most DIY jobs don’t include.

• Engine filter: often DIY-friendly with basic tools
• Cabin filter: may require interior trim removal
• Dealer provides OEM filter, intake/MAF inspection, and documentation
