What is the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter?

• Nalley Honda uses OEM cabin and engine filters and documents replacements so you know what was serviced and why; warranty work must be completed at a certified dealership for coverage.

What are signs of a bad air filter?

• Reduced acceleration, lower fuel economy, rough idle, or unusual engine odors can indicate a clogged engine air filter in your 2021 Honda Accord Hybrid.
• For cabin filters: persistent dust, poor HVAC airflow, or unpleasant odors inside the car are red flags.
• Bring your vehicle to Nalley Honda for a quick inspection — we provide clear findings, estimate jobs fairly, and show you the old part to confirm replacement value.

What types of air filters are in a 2021 Honda Accord Hybrid?
