2022 Kia Seltos Air Filter in Burlington, MA

The 2022 Kia Seltos engine air filter sits in a rectangular airbox in the engine bay on the intake side.

You’ll find the housing near the front or side of the bay with metal clips or screws holding the cover. The cabin air filter is typically mounted behind the glove box. If you’re near Burlington, MA, our trained technicians can confirm placement and replace both filters during one visit — you can schedule service online.

• Engine air filter: inside the intake airbox in the engine compartment
• Cabin air filter: typically behind the glove box in the HVAC intake path
• Clips/screws secure the airbox lid; verify seating of the gasket when reinstalled

The engine air filter protects the 2.0L inline-4 intake, while the cabin air filter cleans air entering the HVAC for passengers.

The engine filter helps the 146-hp 2.0L I-4 breathe cleanly for efficient combustion and performance. The cabin microfilter targets dust and pollen for occupants. In Burlington and surrounding cities, we replace both with Kia Genuine Parts and perform a quick intake and HVAC visual. Check our service specials before you book.

• Engine filter: protects throttle body/MAP/MAF and intake tract
• Cabin filter: improves HVAC airflow quality for you and your passengers

Common signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, rough idle, weak HVAC airflow, and musty cabin odors.

A dirty engine filter can restrict the 2.0L’s airflow and upset fuel trims, while a loaded cabin filter can limit blower output. If you notice these symptoms around Burlington, we can inspect both filters, check the intake box seal, and advise on replacement. Book a quick visit with our online schedule service tool.
