Frequently Asked Questions

11 common questions answered

Where is the engine air filter located on a 2011 Dodge Charger?

The engine air filter on the 2011 Dodge Charger sits in the engine bay inside the air intake housing near the front of the engine compartment.

On most 2011 Dodge Charger V8 engines the filter is enclosed in a rectangular plastic housing that clips or screws shut and feeds air to the throttle body. You can visually confirm location with the hood open; many owners find the housing on the passenger-side front area of the bay. At our Sandy service center we inspect the housing and seals as part of the check.

  • Located in the engine bay air intake housing
  • Often accessible without removing major trim
  • Technician inspects housing clips and seals during replacement
Where is the cabin air filter located on a 2011 Dodge Charger?

The cabin air filter on the 2011 Dodge Charger is typically located behind the glove box in the HVAC plenum.

Access usually requires opening and lowering the glove box or removing a small access panel; some models have a simple snap-in cartridge, while others need a few fasteners removed. Our Sandy technicians remove the glove box carefully to avoid damage and check the HVAC intake area for leaf or debris buildup when replacing the cabin element.

  • Behind the glove box in the HVAC plenum
  • Accessible via glove box removal or an access panel
  • Technician checks surrounding ducts for debris during service
What's the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2011 Dodge Charger?

The engine air filter protects the engine intake for combustion, while the cabin air filter protects passengers and the HVAC system from dust, pollen, and road particles.

The engine filter prevents contaminants from entering the intake tract and helps maintain power and fuel economy; the cabin filter cleans the air that circulates inside the vehicle. Both filters affect comfort and performance differently, so technicians evaluate each system independently during a service visit at our Sandy facility.

  • Engine filter: protects combustion and MAF/air sensors
  • Cabin filter: filters HVAC air for passengers
  • Both are inspected separately during a filter service
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2011 Dodge Charger?

Common signs on a 2011 Dodge Charger include reduced engine power, lower fuel economy, and weak HVAC airflow or musty cabin odors.

When the engine air filter is clogged the vehicle can feel sluggish under acceleration and may show reduced mpg; a clogged cabin filter commonly yields reduced blower output, uneven vent flow, or a noticeable stale smell inside the car. Our Sandy service team checks both filters and related components to pinpoint the cause.

  • Engine: reduced power and fuel efficiency
  • Cabin: weak HVAC airflow and musty or stale odors
  • Technician inspects MAF and intake for related contamination
Can I replace the air filter on my 2011 Dodge Charger myself, or should Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy do it?

You can often replace the engine air filter yourself, while the cabin filter may require more disassembly; the dealer provides OEM-spec parts and a full inspection.

Many owners handle the engine filter swap with basic tools, but cabin access behind the glove box can be trickier and some models need trim removal. Choosing the dealer ensures an OEM-spec part is installed plus a visual inspection of the intake housing and MAF sensor that DIY replacements commonly skip.

  • Engine filter: generally DIY-friendly with basic tools
  • Cabin filter: may require glove box or panel removal
  • Dealer service includes intake and MAF visual checks
