Frequently Asked Questions

12 common questions answered

Where is the engine air filter located on a 2023 Nissan Murano?

The engine air filter sits in a sealed airbox inside the engine bay, ahead of the intake tube on the 2023 Nissan Murano.

This location allows the filter to clean incoming air before it reaches the 3.5L V6 intake. Pop the hood and look for a rectangular housing with clips or screws—it’s typically positioned near the front corner of the bay. If you prefer a professional inspection, our Mesa service team can confirm fitment and check for debris or leaks during the visit.

  • Under-hood airbox with clips/screws
  • Filters air before the 3.5L V6 intake
  • Easy visual access for quick checks
Where is the cabin air filter on a 2023 Nissan Murano?

The cabin air filter is typically positioned behind the glove box on the 2023 Nissan Murano.

This placement lets the filter clean air going through the HVAC system before it enters the passenger area. Access often requires lowering or removing the glove box and opening a small access panel. Our technicians in Mesa can replace it and verify HVAC door operation to ensure proper airflow and filtration.

  • Behind the glove box access panel
  • Filters HVAC air for passengers
  • May require glove box removal
Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2023 Nissan Murano?

The engine air filter protects the 3.5L V6 intake from dirt, while the cabin air filter cleans HVAC air for passengers.

They do different jobs in different locations: the engine filter sits under the hood in the airbox; the cabin filter is behind the glove box. In Arizona dust and pollen seasons, both filters can load faster, so periodic inspections in Mesa conditions are smart for performance and comfort.

  • Engine filter: intake protection for combustion
  • Cabin filter: removes dust/pollen for occupants
  • Different housings and service steps
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2023 Nissan Murano?

Top 3 signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, and weak or musty HVAC airflow.

On the engine side, the Muranos 260-hp V6 may feel sluggish or return fewer MPG if the intake filter is dirty. For the cabin, Arizona dust can cause diminished fan output and odors through the vents. If you notice these symptoms while driving around Mesa or the Phoenix East Valley, plan an inspection soon.

  • Engine: hesitation, rough idle, or poor MPG
  • Cabin: weak airflow or musty smell
  • Visible dirt/debris on filter media
Can I replace the air filter on my 2023 Nissan Murano myself, or should the dealer do it?

Yesthe engine filter is often DIY-friendly; the cabin filter is behind the glove box and may need trim removal.

Many owners can swap the under-hood engine filter with basic tools. The cabin filter usually involves releasing the glove box and accessing a tight panel. At Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, replacement includes an intake housing check and a visual MAF sensor inspection using Nissan-spec parts if you prefer professional service.

  • Engine filter: simple clips/screws
  • Cabin filter: confined access panel
  • Dealer adds housing/MAF checks with OEM parts

How do I check the engine air filter on a 2023 Nissan Murano?

Open the airbox in the engine bay, lift out the rectangular filter, and inspect for light blockage, tears, or excessive dust.

Release the clips or screws, remove the filter, and hold it to a light source—limited light passage indicates loading. In Mesas dusty climate, periodic checks help maintain smooth power delivery from the V6. If the media is dark or frayed, replace with a Nissan Genuine filter.

  • Inspect for dirt, damage, and oil contamination
  • Re-seat the filter with the arrow/orientation marks
  • Ensure the airbox lid seals evenly
Is a cabin air filter worth replacing on a 2023 Nissan Murano in Mesa?

Yesa clean cabin filter improves HVAC airflow and helps trap dust and pollen common in the Phoenix East Valley.

  • Helps reduce odors and allergens
  • Proper fit prevents dust bypass
