Where is the engine air filter located on a 2022 Honda CR-V?

The engine air filter is located inside the engine bay in the air-box near the front right or left fender area of the 2022 Honda CR-V.

On the 2022 Honda CR-V the air-box is a rectangular housing that clips or bolts closed; you access it by opening the hood and locating the large intake duct that runs from the grille area to the housing. Cabin filters are separate and typically sit behind the glove box in most CR-Vs.

  • Engine air filter: in the engine bay air-box (front corner).
  • Accessible with basic hand tools or quick-release clips.
  • Cabin air filter: behind the glove box, inside the passenger compartment.
What's the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2022 Honda CR-V?

The engine air filter cleans incoming air for combustion; the cabin air filter conditions the air entering the passenger HVAC system.

For the 2022 Honda CR-V the engine filter protects the engine and fuel economy by keeping dust and debris out of the intake, while the cabin filter removes pollen, dust, and particulates from the air you breathe inside the vehicle. Each serves a different system and requires separate inspection and replacement.

  • Engine filter: protects engine components and sensors.
  • Cabin filter: improves HVAC airflow and in-cabin air quality.
  • Both use different housings and part numbers for the CR-V.
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2022 Honda CR-V?

Common signs include reduced engine power or acceleration, lower fuel economy, rough idle for the engine filter, and weak HVAC airflow or musty odors for the cabin filter.

If you notice slower throttle response or decreased miles per gallon in your 2022 Honda CR-V, the engine intake filter may be restricted. For the cabin filter, reduced blower performance, unpleasant odors, or increased dust inside the cabin indicate inspection is needed.

  • Engine symptoms: reduced power, hesitation, or rough idle.
  • Cabin symptoms: weak airflow, odors, or increased dust inside the car.
  • Inspection can confirm contamination versus other causes.
