Air filter

I am going to assume you are asking about the engine air filter. The answer is no if it is classed as an OEM replacement part. I have been using the Purolator A25585 filter in both of my 3G TL's and it works fine. Incidentally, the stock "Honda" filter for the TL is a good unit, though somewhat restrictive. It is a dual plain filter with an oil-wetted bottom section and a dry element top section.

Pretty much the only way an air filter would void a warranty would be if th engine was able to ingest particles resulting in "engine damage". If you are remotely unsure or concerned with this issue on any given air filter - why purchase it...
Bottom line, somewhere within the air filters documentation it should state: "meets or exceeds manufacturers requirements" etc..

Our TL's, of course, utilize speed density methodology.
