Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2018 Ram Promaster Cargo Van?
The engine air filter protects the 3.6L V6s intake air for combustion, while the cabin air filter cleans the air entering the HVAC system for passengers.
Both filters serve different systems on the 2018 Ram Promaster Cargo Van. The engine filter supports performance and fuel economy by blocking dust and debris from the intake.
