The engine air filter sits inside the airbox in the engine bay, typically on the passenger side of the 2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty with the 6.2L V8.

This location allows quick access for inspections and replacements during routine service. The airbox protects the filter element from water and debris, feeding clean air to the 6.2L V8 (engine code 8VNAF6.2). If you’re unsure about access or fitment, our Westborough team can confirm placement and install the correct OEM-spec part.

• Airbox is generally mounted near the passenger-side fender.
• Secured by clips or screws; no specialty tools typically required.
• Intake tube routes filtered air to the throttle body and MAF area.

The engine air filter protects the 6.2L V80s intake from dirt, while the cabin air filter (if equipped) cleans HVAC air for passengers.

These filters serve different systems: the engine filter preserves performance and helps maintain fuel economy; the cabin filter improves in-cab air quality by trapping dust and allergens. Each has a distinct size and location, and both should be inspected periodically for loading and damage.

• Engine filter: located in the under-hood airbox feeding the intake.
• Cabin filter: typically positioned behind the glove box or cowl (varies by configuration).
• Use OEM-spec media for correct airflow and sealing.

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