Your Toyota vehicle came with factory air filters already installed. They're there to protect your engine and HVAC system, allowing them to always perform their best.

How Your Air Filters Work

The engine air filter sits atop your air intake, collecting contaminants and debris before they can get into the engine. Go too long without changing it, and your engine may start to misfire. That's due to carbon build up limiting the amount of air that enters the engine.

Your cabin air filter is usually located behind your glovebox. It prevents allergens and other microscopic troublemakers from getting into the cabin through the air vents. When it gets clogged, your cabin air quality suffers.

How to Detect Air Filter Trouble

Of course, even the best air filters won't last forever. To prevent yours from getting too degraded to do their job, change them on a regular schedule. Signs of problems with your air filters include:

Engine misfires
Reduced fuel efficiency
The "Check Engine" light comes on
You can't keep a consistent cabin air temperature
Less air comes through the vents
