Where is the air filter in a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD?

• The engine air filter sits inside the airbox near the front of the engine bay; it’s accessible but can be tightly fitted on heavy‑duty trucks.
• Cabin air filters (if equipped) are usually behind the glove box or under the dash and protect occupants from dust, pollen, and pollutants.

How often should I change the engine air filter on my 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD?

• Typical intervals are every 12,000–30,000 miles depending on driving conditions; dusty or heavy‑haul use requires more frequent changes.
• Our technicians inspect the filter during routine maintenance and will recommend replacement based on condition, not just mileage.

What is the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter?

• The engine air filter protects the engine and performance; the cabin air filter protects occupants from dust, pollen, and odors.
• Both filters affect comfort and longevity—replacing both at recommended intervals helps preserve fuel economy and HVAC performance.
• Stevinson Chevrolet uses OEM filters, documents the work, and backs service with certified technicians; warranty-covered repairs must be done at a certified dealership.

What are signs of a bad air filter?

• Reduced acceleration or towing power, lower fuel economy, rough idling, or unusual engine sounds can indicate a clogged engine filter.
• Weak HVAC airflow, persistent odors, or increased dust in the cabin point to a dirty cabin filter.
