Step 1
Make sure that your your vehicle has a cabin air filter.
-
Step 2
Locate the filter. Most of the time, it’s located under the hood or beneath the dashboard. Check behind the glovebox for a rectangular plastic cover. Look under the dash for a removable plastic filter cover in the HVAC case.
-
Step 3
After that, remove your stock cabin filter. Under-dash filters can often be removed without any tools by simply opening a small access door.
-
Step 4
Take the old filter with you to the parts store when purchasing a new one. This way, you can be certain that you’re getting the correct replacment. However, if you can’t find the filter or replacement instructions, buy the filter first since it may include step-by-step instructions. Aftermarket replacements are more likely to include this information. A dealer’s parts department should have a diagram showing these details if you buy an original equipment filter.Step 5
- Vacuum the filter chamber before installing the new filter. Wipe with a damp cloth. Check the condition of gaskets and seals and replace if needed.
