Detailed Description

Wix 46116 is an engine air filter designed to support clean intake airflow while capturing airborne contaminants before they reach the engine. The enhanced cellulose media and panel construction make it a practical service choice for Nissan Maxima, Nissan Murano, and Nissan Pathfinder maintenance, along with select INFINITI, Subaru, Saab, and Nissan models listed in the fitment data. This part cross-references NAPA Gold Filters 6116 and FRAM CA4309 for the same application.

Its closed-top panel design and OE-style dimensions help it seat properly in the airbox when replacing a worn or restricted filter. For drivers searching for a Nissan Murano air filter, Nissan Maxima air filter, or Nissan Pathfinder engine air filter, this part number 46116 provides a straightforward replacement option.

What It Helps Address

• Restricted airflow from a dirty or loaded air filter
• Dust and debris entering the intake system
• Reduced filtration performance during stop-and-go driving
• Maintenance replacement for OEM air filter change intervals
• Service needs for vehicles operating on dirt roads or in construction areas

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the airbox shape and dimensions before installation, especially on vehicles with OE part number references such as 16546-0Z000 or 16546-V0100. Replace the filter during routine service, inspect the airbox for debris, and make sure the seal seats evenly before closing the housing. For fitment confirmation, match the vehicle year, make, and model exactly to the listed applications.
