2019 Ram 3500 Air Filter

The engine air filter on the 2019 Ram 3500 is located inside the plastic airbox in the engine bay at the front of the engine.

On the 6.4L V8 2019 Ram 3500 you’ll find the rectangular airbox near the radiator core support; the filter element sits inside that housing and is secured by clips or screws. Locating it is straightforward for inspection before a service visit in Sandy’s dusty seasons.

• Find the airbox at the front of the engine bay, accessible without lifting the cab.
• Release the clips or screws, then lift out the filter for inspection.
• Inspect intake housing and sealing surfaces for debris or damage.

The cabin air filter on the 2019 Ram 3500 is located behind the glove box on the passenger side of the cab.

Access requires dropping or swinging the glove box and releasing a cover panel; this places the element inside the HVAC plenum where it filters incoming air for occupants. In Sandy’s pollen-heavy spring and dusty dry months, the cabin filter can load quickly and reduce HVAC airflow.

• Open and lower the glove box to access the filter access panel.
• Remove the cover to slide the filter out for inspection or replacement.
• Check the filter housing for leaves, debris, or rodent nesting if parked outdoors frequently.

The engine air filter supplies clean air for combustion; the cabin air filter cleans the air entering the vehicle’s HVAC system for passengers.

The engine filter protects the 6.4L V8 intake and fuel system components from dust and debris, which helps maintain power and fuel economy. The cabin filter removes pollen, dust, and particulates from the passenger compartment, improving comfort and HVAC efficiency on local commutes and canyon drives.

• Engine filter: prevents engine wear and protects sensors like the MAF from contamination.
• Cabin filter: improves in-cabin air quality and reduces HVAC odors.
• Both filters affect comfort and performance but serve different systems.

Common signs include reduced engine power, lower fuel economy, a rough idle, weak HVAC airflow, or a musty cabin odor.

For a 2019 Ram 3500 used for towing or frequent short trips, clogged filters can appear sooner; towing heavy loads into mountain areas or driving on dusty roads near the Sandy Auto Mall increases loading. If you notice any of these symptoms, a visual inspection of both engine and cabin filters is the next step.

• Reduced throttle response or sluggish acceleration under load.
• HVAC airflow feels weak or vents emit a stale/musty smell.
• Visible dirt, discoloration, or debris when the filter is removed.

You can typically replace the engine air filter yourself; the cabin filter is also DIY-accessible but may require glove-box removal—Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Sandy offers inspection and OEM-spec installation if you prefer.

DIY replacement of the engine air filter is straightforward for most owners with basic tools, while the cabin filter’s access panel can be tight and may need careful reassembly. If you want OEM parts installed, intake housing checked, and MAF inspection included, schedule service with our technicians in Sandy.

• Engine filter: usually unclips quickly and is a common DIY job.
• Cabin filter: requires lowering the glove box and handling trim carefully.
• Dealer service includes OEM-spec parts, intake/MAF visual check, and proper disposal.

Yes — our service department can install OEM-spec Ram filters for the 2019 Ram 3500 upon request.

When customers request OEM parts we supply and install parts that meet the manufacturer’s specifications; our service advisors can confirm the exact OEM part numbers for the engine and cabin filters. Using OEM-spec filters helps ensure fit, filtration efficiency, and compatibility with the vehicle’s intake and HVAC systems.

• Ask the service advisor for OEM part numbers and availability before your visit.
• OEM-spec installation includes intake housing and seal inspection.
• We document parts used on the service order for transparency.

Follow the vehicle’s owner’s manual recommended interval and inspect more frequently in Sandy’s dusty or high-pollen seasons.

The exact OEM interval is specified in the 2019 Ram 3500 owner’s manual; local driving conditions around the Wasatch Front—short trips, canyon dust, and seasonal pollen—can necessitate earlier replacement. If you drive regularly on unpaved roads or tow heavy loads, bring the filter in for visual checks during routine service.

• Refer to the owner’s manual for the OEM interval specific to your vehicle.
• Inspect the filter during regular oil changes or service visits in Sandy.
• Replace sooner if the filter appears visibly clogged or contaminated.

Air filter service for a 2019 Ram 3500 is typically completed within a standard service appointment; your advisor will confirm estimated time when you schedule.

Turnaround depends on whether one or both filters are being replaced and whether additional inspections (intake housing, MAF sensor) are requested. When you contact our service department we provide an estimated time for your specific appointment and can add the work to a convenient service visit off I‑15 in the Sandy Auto Mall.

• Single-filter checks are quicker; combined inspections naturally take longer.
• Schedule service online or call to get an appointment time confirmed.
• We can combine filter replacement with other routine maintenance to save visits.

This service covers both engine and cabin filter inspection and replacement as requested. We remove and visually inspect the engine air filter housed in the front airbox and the cabin filter located behind the glove box. Technicians check the intake housing and sealing surfaces for tears or debris, perform a visual inspection of the mass airflow (MAF) sensor for obvious contamination, and ensure proper seating of the new filter element.

Our service orders note the exact parts installed; if you request OEM-spec filters we record the OEM part numbers. Warranty terms for parts are listed on your service paperwork—ask your service advisor for current rooftop warranty details. To set up work, schedule service.

Local conditions—spring pollen, dry summer dust, and winter road grit—mean more frequent inspections can be beneficial for both engine health and cabin comfort.
