2020 Hyundai Palisade Air Filter in Auburn, MA

The 2020 Hyundai Palisade’s engine air filter sits in the airbox on the driver-side of the 3.8L V6 engine bay, while the cabin filter is behind the glove box.

This layout makes routine inspections straightforward in Auburn’s varied driving conditions. The engine air filter protects the 3.8L intake from dust, sand, and winter road grit, and the cabin filter cleans HVAC air for passengers across seasons. If you prefer expert help, our technicians can inspect and replace both filters during one visit—just schedule service.

• Engine filter: rectangular airbox, driver-side of the V6.
• Cabin filter: accessed behind the glove box.
• Housing seals and clips should be checked for proper fit.
