Cabin air filter.

I do mine a lot.... Mostly every time I wheel in a dusty area

Apologize if this has been covered but I use this one as I didn't read all the postings:

Cheap and it is very similar to the OEM one. If I can keep the mice from doing this:

they it should last quite awhile with occasional cleanings.

I too have neglected my cabin filter. I'm at 108k mi and I've owned the truck since it had 48K. Never changed it out. After reading this thread...will probably do it today!

Thanks for the great tips on filtering the in-duct too.:thumbsup:

Can some one explain to me exactly where the filter is, I've had the truck about a year and never changed it and before my truck went in for repairs I noticed the ac was cold but wasn't blowing much air out so I guess that's the problem, ill change it as soon as I get it back! Truck is at 70k miles

Its behind the glove box, the owners manual has instructions on how to remove the glove box and replace the filter.

There easy to change, with that many miles before it was changed, I'd just buy a new one!

 

[OffroadTaco4x4]

I will buy a new one defiantly

Crap like pro said what's and where is the breather filter ? I changed my cabin. And air filter under the hood

 

[BigMau]

I change my cabin filter every year. Cheep and easy to do.:thumbsup:

 

[JayQQ97]

Once a year ok? or do it all depend on the dirty conditions one wheels in

 

[Rock62]

Make it simple. Change the cabin filter on the same interval as the intake air filter.

When dirty, change it. Inspect the intake air filter at each oil change. Takes grand total of 2 minutes to inspect.

I change mine when the cabin smells funky.....like this 10 year old thread.
