2025 Hyundai Kona Air Filter in Albuquerque, NM

The 2025 Hyundai Kona’s engine air filter sits in a rectangular airbox in the engine bay, accessed by unclipping the cover on the intake housing.

You’ll find the airbox near the front of the bay, connected to the intake snorkel that feeds the 2.0L inline-4. Release the clips, lift the lid, and the panel-style filter can be lifted straight out. If you prefer a professional inspection, our Albuquerque Hyundai team can check the filter, housing seal, and intake path during a quick visit.

• Rectangular airbox attached to the intake snorkel
• Lift cover by releasing retaining clips; no special tools usually needed
• Book a professional inspection via our service scheduler

The 2025 Hyundai Kona’s cabin air filter is typically located behind the glove box, accessed after lowering or removing the glove box door.

This filter cleans the air entering the HVAC system and is housed in a slim tray behind the glove box liner. Because trim tabs and damper cords can be delicate, many owners prefer a dealer technician to handle it. Our team in Albuquerque can replace the cabin filter and verify blower performance in one visit.

• Behind glove box; remove stops/damper to access tray
• Protects passengers from dust and pollen common in NM

The engine air filter protects the 2.0L engine’s intake, while the cabin air filter cleans the air your passengers breathe through the HVAC system.

The engine filter sits in the under-hood airbox and helps maintain performance and fuel economy for your 2.0L inline-4. The cabin filter, located behind the glove box, traps dust and allergens—useful across Central New Mexico’s dusty and pollen-heavy seasons. Replacing both on time keeps drivability smooth and the interior comfortable.

• Engine filter = combustion air; cabin filter = passenger/HVAC air
• Locations: engine bay airbox vs. behind glove box
• Both contribute to efficiency, HVAC airflow, and comfort

Common signs include reduced power, lower fuel economy, rough idle (engine filter), and weak airflow or musty odors (cabin filter).

In Albuquerque’s dusty climate, the engine filter on a 2025 Hyundai Kona can load up faster, causing hesitation on acceleration or a check engine light tied to airflow. A dirty cabin filter often shows as noisy fans with little airflow, haze on the windshield, or lingering odors. If you notice these, schedule a quick inspection.

• Engine: sluggish accel, mpg drop, uneven idle
• Cabin: weak HVAC airflow, foggy glass, odors
• Book diagnostics: schedule appointment

Yes, many owners DIY the engine filter, while the cabin filter is also doable but can involve trim clips; dealer service adds inspections and OEM-spec parts.

A DIY engine filter swap is typically clip-and-lift. The cabin filter requires glove box manipulation and careful handling of dampers and stops. At Larry H. Miller Southwest Hyundai Albuquerque, technicians also check the airbox seal, intake ducting, and visually inspect the MAF area to help prevent future drivability issues.
