Where is the air filter in a 2026 Lexus RX?
The engine air filter sits in the airbox near the front of the engine bay; our technicians inspect it during multi-point checks.

Inspection typically at every oil change; replacement intervals depend on driving conditions but average between 15,000–30,000 miles.
