Toyota Air Filters FAQ

What Do Air Filters Do for a Toyota?

They help keep dirt and debris from getting into the heating and AC systems and the engine. Most Toyota vehicles have two types -- an engine air filter, usually located in the engine bay, and a cabin air filter, often found under the dashboard or glove box.

How Often Do I Need to Change the Air Filters in My Toyota?

They'll need to be replaced regularly to help you stay ahead of engine and HVAC problems down the road -- in most cases, every 12 months or 12,000 miles (whichever comes first). Check your owner's manual's maintenance schedule for your model's specifics. Otherwise, change them when you see the signs they're going bad.

What are the Symptoms of a Faulty Toyota Air Filter?

A defective engine filter, you'll know from fibers that seem dirty and worn-out, black smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe, the engine misfiring and losing power, and having trouble speeding up. A failed cabin filter, you'll know from heater and air conditioner problems and the cabin starting to smell stale.

How Much Does Toyota Air Filter Replacement Cost?

$60 to $80 on average, usually, according to recent RepairPal data. That's if you have the service center at a Toyota dealership take care of the job for you. Cost can also vary by Toyota model; Toyota Avalon cabin air filter replacement, for example, might run $70 to $100 or more, while, say, Toyota Highlander cabin air filter replacement may run $65 to $90 plus. Even having to replace other parts -- things like air filter housings, for instance -- can factor into price.
