2010 Ford Crown-Victoria Air Filter in Mesa, AZ

The 2010 Ford Crown Victorias engine air filter sits inside the airbox in the engine bay, connected to the intake tube.

This airbox is easy to spot with the intake tube running to the 4.6L V8 throttle body. In Mesas dusty environment, this location helps protect the engine by trapping debris before it reaches the mass airflow (MAF) sensor and intake. Our technicians can open the housing, inspect the filter media, and reseal the airbox to factory spec.
