So I replaced the cabin air filter. I read the How-To on it and it really helped a lot. The air smells much cleaner. I also noticed a slight increase in my AC's performance. I still get a little weird burning smell, but it doesn't smell as strong as it did with my old filter. Maybe it takes time to get rid of the smell. It's definately worth changing the filter. It's a Wix filter. 20 bucks. Why keep breathing in unpurified air from a dirty filter,when you can breathe in purified air with a clean filter.



here it is installed


I just noticed another thread about this. Oh well, this is the second.

yeah mine looked just about the same, i was actualy making room for a oil accumulator when i noticed it, and man was it dirty, big difference after i changed but no room for the accumulator, will have to find somewhere else to instal it, but yeah the filter should be changed more often that it is, hehe yuck

I think any post with the words "cabin air filter" in it should automatically be deleted.

Hmm... never thought of that. Of course, it's alwasys fun to whine and jack-up the # of posts you got.
