Where is the engine air filter located on a 2023 Honda Passport?

The engine air filter sits in the engine bay inside a rectangular airbox connected to the 3.5L V6 intake ducting; the cabin filter is typically accessed behind the glove box.

The airbox houses the engine filter just ahead of the intake tract and is designed for straightforward access during service. The cabin microfilter is positioned in the HVAC case and is commonly reached by lowering the glove box to access the filter slot. If you prefer, our Honda-certified technicians in Burlington can handle both during the same visit.

  • Engine filter: lift airbox cover to remove the panel element
  • Cabin filter: access panel behind glove box on most Passports

Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2023 Honda Passport?

The engine air filter cleans air for combustion in the 3.5L V6, while the cabin air filter cleans air for the HVAC system and passengers.

Under the hood, the engine panel filter protects the intake tract, throttle body, and sensors from dust that can affect performance. Inside, the cabin microfilter screens pollen and fine particles so your Passport’s vents deliver cleaner air. Replacing each at the recommended interval preserves both engine efficiency and interior comfort.

  • Engine filter: protects intake and helps maintain smooth power
  • Cabin filter: supports clean airflow and clear windshield defogging
  • OEM filters available — service specials

  • Cabin: weak airflow, persistent odors, noisy fan
  • Book a checkup: schedule service
