2013 Honda Crosstour Air Filter in Burlington, MA

It sits in the engine-bay airbox on the driver’s side, just ahead of the 3.5L V6 intake duct.

The engine filter is housed in a rectangular airbox secured by clips/screws, keeping debris out of the intake tract. To avoid damaging sensors or seals, open the box carefully and verify the new filter seats evenly. If you prefer a professional install using Genuine Honda parts, schedule service with Herb Chambers Honda of Burlington.

It’s behind the glove box inside the HVAC case, accessed by lowering the glove box and sliding out the filter tray.

The cabin filter cleans the air entering through the Crosstour’s ventilation system. Lower the glove box by releasing the side stops and damper, then remove the rectangular filter tray for service. For clean installation and correct airflow orientation, our team can handle it during a same-visit appointment—simply schedule service.

The engine air filter protects the 3.5L V6 by filtering intake air, while the cabin filter scrubs HVAC air for passengers.

Using Genuine Honda parts maintains the intended filtration and fit. If you’d like both serviced in one visit, check our service specials and then schedule service.
