Detailed Description

WIX WA10297 is an engine air filter engineered as an OE-style replacement for Volvo vehicles that require a panel-style filter element. Its cellulose media is treated to improve durability in moisture-prone conditions, while the increased media area supports consistent filtration during stop-and-go traffic, short trips, dirt roads, construction zones, and highway driving. This part cross-references K&N 33-2388 for the same application. For shoppers searching for a Volvo S60 air filter, Volvo V60 air filter, or Volvo XC60 engine air filter, WA10297 provides a direct-fit option tied to OE part number 31370161.

What It Helps Address

• Restricted airflow caused by a loaded or dirty engine air filter
• Dust and debris entering the intake system during everyday driving
• Reduced filtration performance in wet or humid conditions
• Premature wear from contaminated intake air
• Service replacement needs for Volvo air filter maintenance intervals

Installation Notes and Tips

Install WA10297 in the factory air filter housing and verify the filter seats fully against the sealing surface before closing the air box. Replace it at the manufacturer-recommended service interval, or sooner if the vehicle is driven in dusty, stop-and-go, or severe-duty conditions. Confirm fitment by matching the OE reference 31370161 and the vehicle application before installation.

Quality Assurance

WIX states this filter is tested to ISO 5011 standards and built with durable media and sealing materials for normal and severe driving conditions. It is recommended for OEM air filter change intervals and is intended as a direct replacement for the listed Volvo applications.
