It sits inside a black rectangular airbox on the left (driver) side of the engine bay.

Pop the hood and look for the intake snorkel leading to the airbox; releasing the clips reveals the panel-style filter. Keeping this path clean supports the Veloster’s 201 hp at 6,000 rpm and 195 lb-ft at 1,750 rpm. If you prefer a professional check, stop by our shop near I-90/I-290.

The engine air filter feeds clean air to the 1.6L turbocharged inline-4, while the cabin air filter cleans air entering the HVAC for passengers.

Engine filtration protects turbo components, sensors, and combustion, helping maintain acceleration and MPG. The cabin filter targets dust, pollen, and road odors for comfort and visibility. Both matter in New England’s mixed weather and road conditions.

• Engine: protects turbo, MAF, and intake tract
• Cabin: improves HVAC airflow and air quality
• Replace together to optimize performance and comfort

Engine: reduced power, worse fuel economy, or rough idle; cabin: weak airflow, musty odors, or noisy blower.

If you notice lag on Worcester hills or foggy windows that won’t clear, filtration may be the culprit. Seasonal debris and salt can load filters quickly. Our Auburn technicians can confirm with a quick visual inspection and recommend OEM-spec replacements.
