Where is the engine air filter located on a 2016 Chrysler 300?

The engine air filter sits inside the engine-bay air box, typically on the passenger side, ahead of the 3.6L V6 intake tube.

Open the hood of your 2016 Chrysler 300 and look for the rectangular air box with clips or screws near the intake snorkel. The filter lies flat inside this housing to protect the V6 from dust and road debris common around Denver and Aurora. Always reseat the air box seal to avoid unmetered air after service.

Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2016 Chrysler 300?

The engine air filter cleans air for combustion; the cabin air filter cleans air for passengers through the HVAC system.

On the 2016 Chrysler 300, the engine filter protects the 3.6L V6 from dust, while the cabin filter traps pollen and particulates entering the interior. Denvers seasonal pollen and roadway dust make both filters important for performance and comfort. Mopar-spec elements ensure proper fit and airflow.

  • Engine filter: intake protection for power and efficiency
  • Cabin filter: HVAC airflow and in-cabin air quality
  • Different locations, materials, and airflow paths
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2016 Chrysler 300?

Common signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, rough idle (engine filter) and weak airflow or musty odors (cabin filter).

Your 2016 Chrysler 300 may feel sluggish or down on MPG if the engine filter is packed with dust from Denver and I-225 commutes. Inside, a clogged cabin filter can restrict HVAC flow and cause odors, especially after spring pollen. Inspect both filters before long trips.

  • Engine: hesitation, poorer MPG, dirty filter media
  • Cabin: weak vents, foggy windows clearing slowly
  • Visible debris or discoloration on filter pleats
