Intake Air Distribution and Filtering

3.5L Ti-VCT

The air intake system consists of the:

• ACL assembly.
• ACL outlet pipe.
• ACL element.

The air intake system:

• cleans intake air with a replaceable, dry-type ACL element.

The engine ACL contains an ACL element made of treated, pleated paper. A new ACL element must be installed periodically as scheduled. Engine performance and fuel economy are adversely affected when maximum restriction of the ACL element is reached.

3.5L GTDI

The air intake system consists of the:

• ACL assembly.
• ACL element.
• ACL outlet pipe.
• CAC .
• CAC pipes and tubes.
• turbocharger intake pipe.
• turbocharger intake tubes.

The air intake system:

• cleans intake air with a replaceable, dry-type ACL element.

The engine ACL contains an ACL element made of treated, pleated paper. A new ACL element must be installed periodically as scheduled. Engine performance and fuel economy are adversely affected when maximum restriction of the ACL element is reached.

The CAC subsystem cools and increases the density of the compressed turbocharged air.
