How To Replace Cabin Air Filter

Your cabin air filter helps keep exhaust gases, dust, pollen and odors out of your vehicle’s ventilation system. A dirty filter can block airflow, which can cause heating and cooling problems in your car and health problems for your family. Your Cabin Air Filter should be replaced once a year or every 20,000kms. We’ll show you how it’s done.

Remember, if you have any questions or if you're unsure of anything, feel free to contact the Parts Pros at your local PartSource. They'll always ready to help, no matter what the job is.

Let's go!

Every vehicle is different. When it comes to maintenance and repairs, always follow the vehicle's owner's manual.

Safety should be your number one priority. Don't smoke, drink alcoholic beverages, or wear a necktie while working on the car. Watch out for hot objects, sharp instruments, hazardous materials and other potential safety hazards in and around your workspace.

Don't work with a Philips when the job calls for a flat. Substituting tools can compromise your safety or your vehicle's performance.

Finally, when the fun turns to frustration, or if the job requires specialized knowledge beyond your capabilities, please do not attempt it yourself. Talk to a Parts Pro or seek the assistance of a professional mechanic or installer. The last thing we want is someone getting hurt.

Not all vehicles have a cabin air filters – but most manufactured since 2001 will.
