Detailed Description

WIX 49136 is an engine air filter designed to help maintain intake cleanliness in Ford Super Duty trucks used for work and everyday driving. The filter’s enhanced cellulose media and durable sealing construction are engineered to handle moisture exposure and temperature swings while supporting OEM-style service intervals. This part cross-references Motorcraft FA1782 and FRAM CA10071 for the same application. If you are replacing a worn Ford F-250 Super Duty air filter or servicing a Ford F-350 Super Duty air filter application, WIX 49136 provides a direct-fit panel format with the listed dimensions of 14.682 inches long, 6.792 inches wide, and 2.795 inches high.

Common Issues This Filter Helps Address

• Restricted airflow from a dirty or clogged engine air filter
• Dust and debris entering the intake system during road and jobsite driving
• Reduced filtration performance after extended service intervals
• Moisture-related media breakdown in harsh weather conditions
• Fitment mismatch when replacing the Ford Super Duty air filter with the wrong panel size

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the existing filter dimensions and housing style before installation. Confirm the vehicle is a 2005-2007 Ford F-250 Super Duty or 2005-2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty, then seat the panel evenly in the airbox so the seal closes fully around the perimeter. Inspect the air cleaner housing for dirt, leaves, or debris before installing the new filter.

Quality Assurance

WIX states that this filter is tested to ISO 5011 standards and built for normal and severe driving conditions. The manufacturer also recommends following OEM air filter change intervals for service timing.
