Support clean airflow through the intake system
-
Protect internal engine components
-
Maintain dependable performance in heavy-duty applications
-
Provide a direct replacement for the existing filter
The air filter should be inspected as part of the truck’s regular maintenance schedule. Replacement intervals can vary depending on operating conditions, mileage and the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.
How to Confirm the Correct Replacement Filter
Two air filters may look similar while having different dimensions, sealing surfaces or applications. Before replacing an LAF1849 air filter, RS3518, P185069 or P527682, confirm the following information:
-
The part number printed on the current filter
-
The truck’s make, model and year
-
The engine and air intake configuration
-
The filter’s overall dimensions
-
The VIN, when available
Checking this information helps reduce the risk of ordering a filter that does not match the vehicle’s air intake system.
