At Stevinson Chevrolet in CO we emphasize transparency: our advisors explain condition, show the removed parts when relevant, and use OEM cabin filters to maintain factory air quality standards.

Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The engine air filter and the cabin air filter serve distinct but equally important roles on a 2012 Chevrolet Corvette. The engine filter protects the 6.2L V8 by ensuring clean airflow to combustion chambers—directly affecting horsepower, throttle response and fuel economy—while the cabin filter protects you and your passengers from airborne contaminants. Neglecting either can lead to performance loss or interior discomfort. At Stevinson Chevrolet, our technicians inspect both filters during routine service and provide clear recommendations. Using OEM parts and factory procedures ensures correct fit and longevity; repairs covered under warranty must be performed at a certified dealership to maintain coverage. Choosing dealer service often saves money in the long run through proper diagnosis and precise installation. Ready to protect performance and comfort?
