Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The engine air filter and the cabin air filter serve distinct roles for your 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class. The engine filter prevents particulates from entering the intake system, directly protecting turbocharger components and maintaining peak horsepower and fuel economy—vital for a high-performance platform. The cabin filter keeps pollen, dust, and road grime out of the passenger compartment, improving comfort and air quality. Both filters should be inspected regularly: a clogged engine filter leads to reduced throttle response and higher fuel use, while a dirty cabin filter can cause odors, reduced HVAC airflow, and allergen exposure. At Park Place Motorcars Fort Worth, our certified Mercedes-Benz technicians evaluate both filters during routine oil and service visits, recommend OEM replacements when necessary, and explain the immediate and long-term savings of preventative maintenance.
