Call or Text (352) 722-5295Aftermarket replacement air filters for the 2018-2021 Ford F-150 3.0L Power Stroke. This is where non-Motorcraft filters for the diesel F-150 live. Whatever brand you run, dust shortens the schedule: Ford's interval is 30,000 miles in normal service, but it says to check the filter frequently in dusty environments.
Replacement filters for the 2018-2021 Ford 3.0L Power Stroke
The factory service part is a Motorcraft FA1883 panel filter in a closed airbox. When you shop aftermarket, the first question is what's under your hood. A truck with the stock box needs a panel that matches the FA1883. A truck that has moved to an aftermarket intake needs the filter made for that intake; the S&B kit, for example, runs either cotton cleanable or dry extendable media.
What we carry
This page carries the No Limit Fabrication NLRF cold air intake filter. Its listing names the 2018-2021 3.0L Power Stroke alongside 2003-2026 6.0L, 6.4L and 6.7L trucks, so check that it matches the intake on your F-150, not just the engine.
When it's time to replace
A restricted filter is the documented intake-side concern on this engine. You'll see it as restricted MAF readings, reduced boost and soot. Our research found no intercooler, charge-pipe or MAF failure pattern on these trucks, so a dirty filter is the first suspect when the truck feels flat.
Fitment notes
The 3.0L was F-150 only, 2018-2021. Use the fitment checker, compare the dimensions on the product page with your intake, and verify by VIN if you're unsure of the year or engine. Other Ford diesel parts are on the Power Stroke hub.
Frequently asked questions
Does the NLRF filter list the 3.0L as well as the bigger Power Strokes?
Yes. Its listing names the 2018-2021 3.0L Power Stroke along with 2003-2026 6.0L, 6.4L and 6.7L trucks. Because it's sold as a cold air intake filter, match it to the intake on your truck, not just the engine.
How do I know my F-150 diesel's filter is due?
Go by mileage and conditions: 30,000 miles in normal service, sooner in dust. Restricted MAF readings, reduced boost or soot are signs it's overdue. Pull it and look whenever the truck has been working in sand or dirt.
