Frequently Asked Questions

• Maintains performance and economy: a less-restricted air flow keeps the 647 hp engine breathing efficiently, helping sustain throttle response and fuel economy on long drives or track days.
• Dealership advantage: Larry H. Miller Super Ford Salt Lake City uses OEM-grade filters and factory-trained technicians to deliver precise replacements that often cost less than independent shops while providing immediate and long-term savings through better parts life and fewer follow-up visits.

Where is the air filter in a 2017 Ford GT?

• Engine air filter location: the engine air filter sits in a dedicated intake housing near the rear/side of the engine bay; its service requires careful handling because of the GT’s performance intake plumbing.
• Cabin air filter location: the cabin filter is located behind the glovebox or under a dash access panel and is designed for easy inspection and replacement by certified technicians.
• Expert inspection: our factory-trained team at Larry H. Miller Super Ford Salt Lake City inspects both filters during routine service and recommends only necessary work to keep costs down.

How often should I change the engine air filter on my 2017 Ford GT?

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

• Engine vs. cabin: the engine air filter protects engine internals and performance, while the cabin air filter improves in-cabin air quality for passengers.
• Distinct functions: engine filters preserve horsepower and turbo health; cabin filters remove pollen, dust, and pollution for a comfortable driving environment.
• Dealership assurance: we use OEM filters for both applications and back work with transparent records and warranties—repairs covered under warranty must be done by certified dealerships like ours.
