2024 Ram 1500 Classic Air Filter

The engine air filter is located in the engine bay inside the intake airbox at the front of the vehicle near the grille on the 2024 Ram 1500 Classic.

On the 2024 Ram 1500 Classic with the 3.6L V6, the air filter sits in a rectangular housing that snaps or bolts closed; you can access it from above with basic hand tools. Technicians inspect the housing seal and intake path for debris when replacing the filter.

• Located in the engine bay inside the intake airbox near the front.
• Accessible from above once clips or fasteners are removed.
• Technician checks intake housing and seals during service.

The cabin air filter is located behind the glove box in the HVAC plenum on the 2024 Ram 1500 Classic.

Access typically requires lowering or removing the glove box to reach the filter tray; this protects the HVAC system from pollen, dust, and road debris that can accumulate in Albuquerque’s dusty conditions. A service inspection also checks the blower intake and drain paths.

• Located in the HVAC plenum behind the glove box.
• Often requires glove-box lowering for access.
• Technician inspects blower intake and drain for clogs.

The engine air filter protects the 3.6L V6 intake and combustion system, while the cabin air filter protects the HVAC system and passenger air quality.

The engine air filter prevents dust and debris from reaching the throttle body and cylinders, helping the 305-hp V6 maintain performance and fuel economy. The cabin filter captures pollen, dust, and road particles before air reaches occupants, improving comfort and HVAC efficiency in Albuquerque’s variable seasons.

• Engine air filter: protects intake, affects power and fuel economy.
• Cabin air filter: filters HVAC air for passenger comfort.
• Both should be checked during regular maintenance visits.

Common signs include reduced acceleration or power in the 305-hp 3.6L V6, lower fuel economy, rough idle, weak HVAC airflow, and musty cabin odors.

A clogged engine filter can starve the engine of airflow and affect the truck’s throttle response and towing capability, while a clogged cabin filter reduces ventilation and can create odors or fogging issues. Local road dust and pollen in Albuquerque accelerate this buildup.

• Noticeable drop in acceleration or throttle response.
• Reduced HVAC airflow, unusual smells, or fogging windows.
• Visible dust or debris when the filter is inspected.

The engine air filter is often user-replaceable with basic tools, while the cabin filter usually needs glove-box removal and may be easier with a technician’s help.

Many owners can change the engine intake filter, but the dealer adds value by performing an intake housing inspection, MAF visual check, and proper disposal of old parts. If you want OEM-spec parts and a full inspection, schedule service with the dealership.
