Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

Understanding the difference between the engine air filter and the cabin air filter is essential to protecting both performance and passenger comfort in your 2012 Nissan 370Z. The engine filter prevents dirt and debris from entering the 3.7L V6 intake, preserving horsepower (332 hp at 7000 rpm) and maintaining fuel efficiency—critical for a high-performance two-seater. The cabin filter, conversely, keeps contaminants out of the passenger compartment and preserves HVAC performance. At Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we inspect both filters during routine maintenance and recommend replacement intervals based on actual condition rather than a one-size-fits-all schedule. Using OEM parts and factory-trained technicians reduces the risk of premature wear, and any warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership—our staff will explain coverage and document service accordingly.
