Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter in a 2013 Honda Fit is more than location: each serves a distinct role that impacts performance, comfort, and long-term value. The engine air filter protects the 1.5L inline-4 from particulates that can reduce horsepower, foul sensors, and increase fuel consumption; keeping this filter clean preserves the Fit’s 117 horsepower output and smooth throttle response. The cabin air filter protects occupants from pollen, dust, and road debris, improving HVAC performance and interior air quality. At Larry H. Miller Honda Boise in Boise, ID, our service team inspects both filters during routine maintenance, uses OEM replacements, and documents condition and recommended intervals. Maintaining both filters delivers immediate benefits—sharper acceleration and cleaner air—and long-term savings through reduced wear and fewer repairs. To book a dual inspection or replacement, schedule service online and ask about current service specials and service financing options.
