Wix Engine Air Filter for Mazda 3, CX-30, CX-5, CX-50 — WA11107 Pleated Media & Plastisol Seals

WIX WA11107 is a replacement engine air filter designed to trap dust and contaminants so Mazda 3, CX-30, CX-5 and CX-50 engines run cleaner and maintain peak performance.

Keeping intake air free of abrasive particles helps protect internal engine components and preserves oil life. The WIX WA11107 uses embossed pleats and stabilization beads to increase media surface area and capture more debris than a simple flat element. Built with heat-resistant plastisol and pliable seals on both the top and bottom, this cartridge is engineered for a precise fit in compatible Mazda applications and easy installation during routine service.

How does this WIX filter improve engine protection?

The WA11107 focuses on removing harmful dust and contaminants before they reach the engine's combustion chamber or mix with lubricating oil. Its pleated construction increases filtration area and the stabilization beads help the pleats keep shape under airflow, improving dirt-holding capacity. That means fewer particles bypass the media and less risk of accelerated wear.

• Embossed pleats for greater surface area and particle capture
• Pleat stabilization beads maintain filter geometry under load
• Seals formed from heat-resistant plastisol ensure an accurate, leak-resistant fit

Will this filter fit my Mazda 3, CX-30, CX-5 or CX-50?

WA11107 is manufactured to match the dimensions and sealing requirements common to these Mazda models, but fitment can vary by year, engine or factory option. Always verify compatibility by entering your vehicle details in a part-finder or checking your owner’s manual before purchase. The pliable top and bottom seals help provide a snug connection where proper fit is achieved.

• Designed for common Mazda intake housing dimensions
• Check vehicle year, engine code and part number for confirmation
• Use the store part-finder or owner's manual to guarantee correct match

How often should I replace the WIX WA11107 air filter?

Air filter replacement intervals depend on driving conditions, climate and mileage. For typical driving, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended service schedule; in dusty or off-road conditions, inspect and replace more frequently. Regular replacement helps maintain airflow, fuel efficiency and engine longevity.

• Follow Mazda’s recommended service interval in the owner’s manual
• Inspect filter during routine oil changes or if driving in dusty areas
• Replace sooner if filter appears clogged, damaged or heavily soiled

How does the WA11107 stand up to installation and everyday use?

The filter's heat-resistant plastisol construction and pliable seals make installation straightforward and reduce the chance of leaks once installed. Durable media and reinforced pleat structure resist collapse and maintain filtration performance under normal airflow and temperature ranges. This combination supports reliable operation between service intervals.

• Heat-resistant plastisol top and bottom walls for long-term sealing
• Pliable seals adapt to housing irregularities for a precise fit
• Robust media and pleat stabilization minimize deformation over time

Who is this for: Vehicle owners and technicians who service Mazda 3, CX-30, CX-5 or CX-50 models and want a direct-fit, durable replacement air filter. It’s suited to drivers seeking a factory-style cartridge that prioritizes contaminant capture and a reliable seal during routine maintenance. If you maintain your car according to Mazda recommendations or drive in environments with dust and debris, WA11107 is a practical replacement option to help preserve engine condition and performance.
