Guide overview

Before you begin

This guide will help you replace the air filter on your 2011-2014 Dodge Challenger 3.6L V6. It's important to change the engine air filter every 15K-30K miles under normal driving conditions and sooner if driving under extreme conditions. It's a good idea to change the engine air filter at each oil change. Don't forget to dispose of the old filter properly and record the replacement date. Before you begin, make sure to turn off your car and put it in park to ensure a safe repair.
