Service Overview
The cabin filter traps pollen, dust and exhaust soot before they reach your vents. Replacing it transforms airflow and air quality — most are buried behind the glovebox.
Service involves the cabin filter element and inspection of the blower intake for leaves and debris.
Signs You Need This Service
- Weak airflow even on high fan speed
- Musty smell from the vents
- Allergies acting up in the car
- Windows slow to defog
Consequences of Ignoring It
- Blower motor strain and premature failure
- Mold and odor in the HVAC box
- Poor defogging — a real visibility issue in winter
Recommended Service Interval
Every 15,000–25,000 miles or yearly — sooner if you park under trees.
