2024 Acura RDX Air Filter in Marietta, GA | Nalley Acura

The engine air filter on the 2024 Acura RDX is located in a rectangular housing in the engine bay, typically near the front on the passenger side.

On the 2024 Acura RDX the air filter sits inside a snap- or bolt-secured plastic box that feeds the intake; it separates debris before air reaches the turbocharger and intake tract. Locating and replacing this filter is usually straightforward for a DIYer with basic tools, but technicians will also inspect the intake housing and MAF sensor for contamination.

• Filter in engine bay, inside a rectangular housing
• Housing fasteners are usually clips or small bolts — no heavy tools
• Technicians inspect intake and MAF sensor during service

The cabin air filter on the 2024 Acura RDX is located behind the glove box inside the passenger compartment.

Accessing the cabin filter usually requires lowering or removing the glove box to reach the filter tray; the cabin filter screens pollen, dust, and road debris from HVAC airflow. Because pollen and humid Georgia summers can accelerate clogging, a visual inspection during routine service is recommended to maintain airflow and HVAC performance.

• Cabin filter sits behind the glove box in the passenger compartment
• Removal commonly requires releasing glove box stops or clips
• Technician checks HVAC airflow and filter orientation on install

The engine air filter protects the 2024 Acura RDX's intake and combustion system, while the cabin air filter protects the vehicle interior and HVAC airflow for passengers.

The engine air filter prevents dust and debris from entering the engine and turbo/combustion system, preserving fuel economy and power. The cabin filter traps pollen, dust, and particulate matter before it reaches passengers, improving air quality and HVAC performance in Marietta's pollen-heavy months.

• Engine filter = combustion intake protection
• Cabin filter = HVAC and passenger air quality protection
• Both require periodic inspection and replacement based on conditions

Common signs include reduced engine responsiveness, reduced fuel economy, and weaker HVAC airflow; the 2024 Acura RDX's 272 hp engine may feel less responsive under load.

For the 2024 Acura RDX, a clogged engine filter can produce reduced throttle response and slight fuel-economy loss; a clogged cabin filter will cause weak vents, unusual HVAC odors, and more dust in the cabin. If you notice check-engine light illumination or persistent HVAC issues, have filters and intake components inspected.

• Engine: reduced power, lower fuel economy, possible rough idle
• Cabin: weak airflow, musty or stale odor, increased dust inside car
• Technician inspects filter condition and intake/vent paths

You can replace the engine air filter yourself on the 2024 Acura RDX with basic hand tools; the cabin filter often requires glove-box removal and is also DIY-doable for experienced owners.

DIY replacement is common for both the engine and cabin filters, but Nalley Acura provides a full inspection that includes intake housing, MAF sensor visual checks, and correct OEM filter fitment.
