Air Intake Duct Hose (3.6L V6 Pentastar) — Dodge Charger / Challenger / Chrysler 300 (2022-2024)

This specialized Air Intake Duct Hose is engineered specifically for the late-model Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, and Chrysler 300 equipped with the 3.6L Pentastar V6 engine (2022–2024 models). It serves as the vital structural bridge transferring clean, filtered ambient air from the air filter box assembly directly into the engine's throttle body. This premium aftermarket replacement is carefully designed to accommodate the subtle engine bay layouts of these recent model years, ensuring a precise, leak-free fit that preserves factory throttle response, optimizes combustion efficiency, and delivers a highly economical alternative to dealership parts.

Technical Specifications

Technical Note: On modern V6 engines, the powertrain control system relies heavily on highly sensitive, real-time feedback from the mass airflow (MAF) and manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensors. Even a hairline fracture or minor split in this hose (caused by age or improper clamp seating) will let unmetered air bypass the sensors, triggering a vacuum leak. This can cause severe RPM fluctuations (idling surge), engine hesitation under load, or cause the vehicle to enter a protective "limp home" mode.

Pro Tip: During installation, take a moment to carefully inspect the rubber seal rings (O-rings/gaskets) at the throttle body mating flange. Restoring a perfectly airtight seal here is vital to preventing any unmetered air from degrading your engine's idle stability.
