Which aFe POWER Air Filter Do I Have?

How to Identify Your Filter

aFe offers various engine air filter shapes, sizes, and media, depending on your vehicle and needs. You may have an engine air filter replacement that fits in your stock airbox, or your filter may be part of an aFe Cold Air Intake.

Locating the Part Number

The part number can be found on the flange opening in a small circle on conical or intake filters and on the side of rectangular filters.
* Note: Some older filters may not have a part number listed.

Search by Vehicle

Use “Search by Vehicle” on the aFe POWER website. Enter your year, make, and model and find your intake or filter. To find the corresponding filter to an intake, scroll down on the intake product page to related products.

Check the Color

You may be able to tell what filter media you have based solely on color, though because the dye in the oil fades over time, you may need to double-check.

Check the Texture

You may also check the texture of the filter media. The Pro DRY S media is synthetic, so it has a smooth texture, whereas the Pro 5R filter media is cotton, so you can see organic fiber’s woven patterns.
