What is the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter?

• The cabin air filter cleans the air entering the passenger compartment, removing pollen, dust, and particulates to improve comfort and HVAC efficiency.
• Both are essential: engine filters maintain mechanical longevity, cabin filters maintain occupant health and comfort — neglecting either can increase operating cost over time.
• Park Place Motorcars Fort Worth uses OEM filters and certified technicians to ensure correct fit, documented service history, and warranty integrity; warranty repairs must be performed at a certified dealership.
