KAX CA12295 CF12157 Engine & Cabin Air Filter for Subaru

Designed as a single, convenient maintenance solution, this KAX kit includes one engine air filter and one cabin air filter engineered to fit Subaru Crosstrek and Impreza model years 2024–2026. The filters use a multi-layer media and coconut shell–activated charcoal to trap particulates and reduce interior smells while preserving engine breathability. Sold together to simplify upkeep, the combo helps you keep both engine performance and in‑car air quality on schedule with a single purchase.

How will these filters affect my Subaru's engine performance?

Replacing the engine air filter in regular intervals helps maintain proper airflow to the intake system, which supports consistent throttle response and fuel delivery. The KAX engine filter uses a high-efficiency media layer that captures dust and debris without overly restricting flow.

• High-efficiency filtration media for effective particle capture.
• Designed to match OEM dimensions for secure fit and seal.
• Low flow resistance to help preserve engine efficiency.
• Simple swap installation typically completed in under 5 minutes.

Will the cabin filter really reduce odors and allergens inside the car?

The cabin filter in this kit contains coconut shell–activated charcoal that adsorbs many common odors while a multi-layer particulate media traps pollen, dust and road debris. It reduces nuisance smells and helps deliver fresher air through the vehicle’s HVAC system.

• Coconut shell–based activated charcoal to neutralize odors.
• Multi-layer particulate barrier for pollen and dust removal.
• Fits the factory cabin filter location for full HVAC coverage.
• Recommended replacement interval to maintain effectiveness.

How easy is it to install both filters and how often should I replace them?

The KAX kit is designed for fast, owner‑friendly installation: most users can replace each filter in about five minutes with basic hand tools or none at all. For predictable maintenance, KAX recommends replacing both the engine and cabin filters together every 12 months or every 12,000 miles.

• Both filters included so you replace together and save time.
• Tool-free or minimal‑tool swap in most cases — step‑by‑step fitment.
• Replace annually or every 12,000 miles for balanced protection.
• Buying the set reduces future parts mismatches and extra orders.
