Where is the engine air filter located on a 2022 Honda Ridgeline?

The 2022 Honda Ridgeline engine air filter sits inside a sealed airbox within the engine bay, ahead of the intake ducting.

Pop the hood and look for a rectangular plastic airbox with metal or plastic clips; the filter panel is inside. While you’re there, a quick visual for debris around the intake snorkel helps maintain consistent airflow on Orlando’s mix of city and highway roads. For the cabin filter, access is typically behind the glove box inside the HVAC intake path.

Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2022 Honda Ridgeline?

The engine air filter protects the V6 intake for combustion, while the cabin air filter cleans the HVAC air you and passengers breathe.

On the 2022 Honda Ridgeline, the engine filter helps maintain stable power and fuel economy for the 3.5L V6 by keeping dust out of the intake path. The cabin microfilter targets pollen and fine particulates that enter through the HVAC system, improving in-cabin air quality during Orlando commutes. Both are serviceable components and use different filter media and locations.

  • Cabin filter: improves passenger air quality
