THE Air and Oil Filter Thread

[Tim K]

Since I just went through the process of changing all my air filters I thought I would combine the info I collected from several other threads.

Listed below are all of the relevant part #'s I gathered from this forum as well as some recommended online retailers.

Some things which need confirmation:

• Most parts listed are confirmed. Unconfirmed parts listed will state where I got the number (per GH, etc)
• I believe the Oil Filter is the same for 2005-2007. What about 2008?
• I believe the Engine Air Filter is the same for 2005-2008. True?

If anyone has updated/confirmed part #'s and/or prices please post them here or PM me and I will update this post.

CHANGING THE FILTERS -


------------------------------------------------------
Battery Filter:

1. Cover is in the cargo area on the driver's side. Use your finger to pop off the plastic panel cover.



2. There is a little black plastic cover that is held in place by two black plastic "clips". It pops right out with a little tug (you might have to push the tabs a little to release the cover).



3. You can see the little white filter. Pull out the old one and stick in the new one. There should be little arrows on the side to tell you which side goes up.



4. Pop the black plastic cover back in place and replace the panel covering.

------------------------------------------------------
Engine Filter:

1. Cover is on the driver's side of the engine compartment. There are two metal clips on the left side. Pull up on the bottom part of the clips to release them. (they are attached and won't fall down)



2. Slide the black housing to the left so that the three black tabs shown here slide out of the slots holding them in place.



3. Lift up the housing to reveal the old filter. Pull it out and replace it.



4. Slide the housing back in place and re-clamp the two clips.

Great thread Tim, I'm stickying this for others to find quickly.

[TriggerHybrid]

Great thread Tim. If you want to go "cheap", you can buy a furnace filter and cut it to size for the cabin air filter (you can get 4-6 per furnace filter), and use some duct tape to "seal" the edges. Certainly wouldn't do this with a required filter like the battery one, but it works in place of the no-filter-installed-at-factory cabin filter.

Bosch Part Number P3710 is for a Cabin Micron Filter.
NOT an engine filter, as posted in post #1.
Cost was $15.99 at Checker Auto.

Fits All Escapes and Tributes from 2001 to 2006 incl. Hybrid.
( Probably 2006 and earlier Mariner also )

I just put one in. It looks like the battery air filter only larger.
Fits perfectly, and installs easily in 10 minutes or less.
All you need is a standard Phillips head screwdriver.

Thanks John. I corrected the first post. Any idea what the Bosch - R2060-138313 is then? I've seen this on a couple of auto parts sites as the cabin filter.

[gpsman1]

Maybe there's more than one?
Maybe one is able to filter 5 micron particles and one 1 micron? I have no idea. I just went to the store and bought the only option they had: P3710 which is for sure a cabin filter.

[Mark E Smith]

Some of the Bosch filters have activated carbon impregnated in them for the skunk factor.

As I just posted in another thread, the confirmed part numbers for a 2007-2008 cabin air filter are:

Ford: 8L8Z-19N619-B
Motorcraft: FP-66

I have the Ford/Motorcraft box and it has both part numbers on it.

[cshupp]

I looked up the air filter part number for the 08's High Voltage battery in the back. It is the same as previous generations of FEH. Part number FP51.

I put a cabin air filter (FP-66) in my 2008 the other day. Those with 2008 and newer models should note that the process documented here in this thread is for the previous generation and is not exactly the same for the Gen2 FEH. It's very similar, but there are some differences. Of note, the cowl can not be removed without removing the wipers. And, even if you were to remove the cowl, the air intake box is not fully accessible as it is partly covered by the firewall in the newer vehicles. Also, the FP-66 must be slightly deformed to fit in the box. It's "almost" the right size but not quite.
