Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2017 Chevrolet Suburban benefits from both an engine air filter and a cabin air filter, and understanding the difference helps preserve performance and comfort. The engine air filter prevents dirt and airborne particles from entering the intake, supporting optimal combustion, horsepower, and fuel economy—critical for a large V8 SUV especially when towing or carrying heavy loads. The cabin air filter protects passengers and HVAC components from pollen, dust, and road grime, improving air quality inside the vehicle. At Stevinson Chevrolet in Colorado we inspect both filters during routine maintenance and recommend OEM replacements when necessary. Our factory-trained technicians use manufacturer-specified parts and proper installation techniques to maintain warranty coverage and long-term value. Regularly replacing both filters reduces strain on the engine and HVAC system, lowers the risk of premature wear, and improves day-to-day comfort for drivers and passengers. To keep your Suburban operating at its best, schedule service with our certified team and check our service specials for savings.
