Detailed Description

WIX 46804 is engineered as a premium panel air filter for vehicles that see mixed driving conditions and regular maintenance intervals. The 30% greater media area versus OES filters helps provide more filtration surface, while the enhanced cellulose construction is treated to improve durability in moisture-prone environments. This makes it a practical choice for owners servicing a Ford F-150, Ford Expedition, or Lincoln Navigator that requires a dependable engine air filter replacement.

This part cross-references FRAM CA9687 and Motorcraft FA1754 for the same application. The WIX 46804 also serves as a direct replacement option for select Ford and Lincoln models listed in the fitment data, including 2004-2008 Ford F-150 and 2005-2006 Ford Expedition.
